If you have WIN XP, and the file is in C:\WINNT\Minidump you can do this to see what's in the file: Click Start > Run Type in the box: cmd then click OK Then type this: cd \winnt\minidump then press Enter To see the files in this folder, type dir then press Enter Look for a file that has a .dmp extension and put that complete filename, including the extension, in place of filename.dmp in the line below. The filename is probably based on the date it was saved, so pick the one you want. Type this line, being sure to include the spaces where shown: dumpchk filename.dmp > dump.txt (using the correct filename and the .dmp extension) then press Enter If there are no error messages, you will now have a file called dump.txt, in the C:\WINNT\Minidump folder. It can be viewed with Notepad. Close the command window. Works for me!

I'd like to think I wrote Sandboxie better than to crash because of something an application like Firefox does. :) Typically crashes occur because of something other drivers do. That is, either the Sandboxie driver confuses some other driver, or it's the other way around. In any case, I think a minidump file is probably the way to go. Sandman, can you produce one and make it available to me?

Are you running any FireFox add-ons (extensions or themes - skins)?

Since you already did a fresh install of Sandboxie which is working with other browsers, the problem may be that something has gotten corrupted in your FireFox installation. You may want to try reinstalling FireFox. Does FireFox run OK outside the sandbox? Dan

You may want to induce a crash, and save the subsequent minidump file, should tzuk request it. He may require it in order to find the nature of the crash.

I am unable to run firefox in Sandboxie. I was able to do so for a few weeks when suddenly all stopped. When I attempt to load Firefox w/sandboxie I get the BSOD. After uninstalling Sandboxie, rebooting, doing a malware scan, reinstalling Sandboxie, creating a new Firefox profile the problem showed up again, only this time i was able to load the new profile in Sandboxie, but as soon as i went online it was BSOD time. Anyone with ideas?
