"When testing a new, unknown program, there is one sure way to keep
your computer from harm: use a sandbox environment.

If the program is unstable, malicious, part of an adware bundle, or
even a virus, the sandbox environment is isolated from the rest of

on. And all you have to do is delete the offending article from your
system."

What's A Sandbox, And Why Should You Be Playing in One

Highly-connective programs can do a lot, but they're also an open
invitation for bad hackers to strike. To prevent strikes from becoming
successful, a developer would have to spot and close every single hole
in their code, which simply isn't possible. Instead, developers have
to take that fact and plan their code with that in mind. The most
common and effective solution: a sandbox.

While it's a good strategy to have sandboxing techniques implemented
into a program's code itself, there are plenty of other programs which
don't have any sandboxing whatsoever. Instead, you'll want to run a
virtual sandbox where you can run programs which can only wreak as
much havoc as they can inside the sandbox, leaving your system in
tact. While this is often meant for testing software, it's also a good
choice to run a web browser or really any other software in there if
you're rather paranoid (or insert your other favorite word here). A
very popular choice for this is Sandboxie, but there are other
products, both free and paid, which can achieve the same

If you're tired of all the bullbleep problems with anti-virus programs
and so-called security suites, use what I've been using for quite a
while.
