How secure is Sandboxie?

Hi,

I wonder if Sandboxie can really prevent all malware from touching the system. It can block Disk I/O, but what's for example with kernel API calls, or API calls to DLLs that are already loaded into the memory. If such DLLs have bugs like e.g. buffer overflows, will applications inside the sandbox be able to write code into the memory which could affect processes outside the sandbox?

Since august 2009 no malware has bypassed Sandboxie. Thatīs a fact.

Also, if you want to see it for yourself, just create a virtual computer, install Sandboxie on it and go on a malware testing rampage.
