Tired of viruses? Never get them again!

People are constantly getting viruses and have no idea how or why they got them. Well certain website will trick you into downloading things… download things automatically for you… or even grab your information from your internet browser. There’s a simple way to prevent this that I just recently came up with the idea to look for. I figured why not run a virtual machine like the FBI does. Basically a virtual machine is a computer inside your computer that can’t make any changes to your original computer unless you specifically tell it to. Using a virtual machine you don’t even need virus protection. After a little bit of searching I found sandboxie
Sandboxie runs your programs in an isolated space which prevents them from making permanent changes to other programs and data in your computer.
Then after more searching I found something even more useful than sandboxie. Sandboxie portable is a portable version of sandboxie…. It can be put on a flash drive and be brought ANYWHERE now you can safely browse on ANY machine.. The best part about it is when you close sandboxie… what you did NEVER existed.
