Currently sandboxie 3.52 (& all previous versions)-

Problem-
FireFox 3.6.13 (default)/IE8 has been acting strangely with PrivateFirewall Free v7.00.22.8 (all versions, 2 Win 7 computers)?-

Sandboxie Border doesn't appear until I Reload the iGoogle search page. Typing in search box also doesn't start automatically until I initially Reload.
If I close sandboxie, and open it again Soon- It's normal.
If sandboxie is closed for 3min+-, or reboot- No border/search on open.

I "completely" disabled Antivir, and still no border...
I finally Exit PF (auto-starts Win firewall), and sandboxie works good with win firewall

Latest PF free version can be downloaded here-

Thanks -- I will look into this.

I'm sorry to report that I was unable to reproduce the problem.

Hmmm?- Did you use iGoogle as your homepage, and try adding the NOAA Weather Gadget under- Settings/IGoogle Settings/Add more Gadgets...
You then need to do a fresh Reboot & open Sandboxie (without opening FireFox normally first).

I get the same no initial border/load on two different computers.

It's no big deal clicking Reload on open, but I have yet to get a PrivateFirewall pop-up while sandboxed (is it filtering...?)?

Are you sure iGoogle and the NOAA weather gadget are actually playing a role in this?

Perhaps it is a case of some other sandboxed window popping up as soon as you open your browser, and the border goes to that window?

For instance I know that if you have a home page which opens an aggressive ad, one which grabs the keyboard focus, then the Sandboxie border goes to this ad. Is it possible that something similar happens here?

I have no other windows opening on start-up. My only other Add on is Webmail AdBlocker (NoBorder when disabled).
I also tried it with default Google Classic (iGoogle with No gadgets too), and still no border on open (currently sandboxie 3.53.1).
The point is that sandboxie works properly with PrivateFirewall disabled.

It would be Very helpful to hear if other Win 7(32)/PrivateFirewall users are having the same NoBorder issue (I doubt that they'd notice, if they didn't use borders!)?!

I upgraded PrivateFirewall to Version: 7.0.23.4/latest sandboxie beta, and they work Good now!

Thank you for your help!

Nice! Thank you for this update.
