Hi Guys, We have a pre-GA tool that could become helpful for malware forensics. I've included a download link and a 30-week license. http://www.greenborder.com/earlyaccess 934OOY22AEGEK23IO3L6ACO3CK47OKD3 30 week license with 'SafeFile' option We're working on the activity monitor which monitors access to local system resources and could use some feedback on what could be useful for the anti-malware community. It's categorized in a few ways, some have called it chroot for windows, some have called it a sandbox, others have called it application virtualization, or a desktop DMZ. It creates an environment which has restricted or virtualized access to local system resources, enough for most applications to run in the environment, but not enough access to modify the base system. The SafeFile option lets you launch existing programs or files in the virtual environment. Please read the online FAQ for more info. The activity monitor is new, and does not yet give detailed logging information. Please send me feedback on your thoughts, and if you find malware able to break out of the environment. Thanks, Bill Stout
