Returnil Personal Edition is good enough for any user. Only for Vista 32-bit though. Also, you'll have to reboot to erase all changes.

Glad to help

Went to Offensive Computing, http://www.offensivecomputing.net/ and infected my computer with several of the latest malware samples and Returnil kept them all off the computer. Ran HJT and Silent Runners, not a trace of malware to be found.
This program is awesome! This post has been edited by MishY: May 9 2008, 05:48 PM |

Yep. I have fun crashing my computer and then rebooting
This is an awesome software, although I'm somewhat concerned about the ways less moral people can abuse it to their advantage :\ -------------------- "If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it.

I was going to abuse anything, I just don't trust my AV program to keep me 100% safe which is somewhat validated in that article at Offensive Computing. I see the sandbox as another layer of protection from internet baddies.

Yes, but I'm thinking of other less civilized people that will abuse the fact that nothing dangerous will remain on their system.
What a convenient way to watch illegal stuff without getting your system screwed up. -Cough- -------------------- "If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it.
