Since upgrading to Vista Ultimate x64, I am really missing being
able to protect my browser sessions with a sandbox application
such as Sandboxie or Greenborder.

Is anybody aware of such an application that will work with
64-bit Vista with mandatory code signing and PatchGuard?

Thanks.

why not try vmware player or server (both are free) with the browser
appliance?

http://www.vmware.com/appliances/dir...rowserapp.html

www.vmware.com

You might even want to try virtualbox that supports running applications in
a seamless mode...

in other words you can have a window from another os directly on your
desktop.

But Protected Mode (part of UAC) sandboxes IE7 in Vista. Does Vista64 not
have IE7 Protected Mode?

Yes, it has both a 32 bit and a 64 bit version of IE both of which run in
protected mode if you have UAC on.
