protect your PC from malicious downloads BufferZone Pro is a unique system security suite that uses virtualization technology to protect your computer from any type of external threat by isolating new files and programs from the rest of your operating system. The program creates an isolated environment called the "Virtual Zone" in which all new applications and files are run until you decide that they are safe to be moved into your "real" computer environment. The entire process is seamless and fully automated. You will see a thin red border around any window that is currently run from the Virtual Zone, indicating that the program cannot make any modifications to your hard drive and registry. BufferZone is ready to use immediately and automatically protects popular browsers, instant messengers and download clients. If your favorite programs are not protected by default, you can easily add them to the list. You can also run any previously downloaded file or program inside the Virtual Zone by choosing the option from the Explorer right-click menu. Other features includes advanced application rules, and integrated firewall (for apps inside the buffer zone), external drive virtualization, personal file protection and more.

Great virt 5 stars by gimpguy Aug 27, 2012 (Read all my 1072 reviews)
This is just one of those great virtual tools to run things in. It is a lot like others where yeah, stop the program prior to doing anything else and restart if it says so else booting can get rather funny and the pc can run badly. I've had this happen a few times now but learned my lesson. Aside from that, this reminds me more of Avast Sandbox but BufferZone actually has control and works great. It doesn't hog your resources, you can safely run applications within it, it's FREE so that's a major plus, especially for keeping your pc clean and virus free. You can't lose out by running this, test all your stuff safely. I want to note, as with Toolwiz Timefreeze which I also use, some programs may not run the same in a virtual environment which is why I have a dummy laptop to try things on if they have trouble, to justify it's the program and not the virtual environment. Great software! showShow review details
Remember to unload it. 4 stars by ericthered257 Jul 15, 2012
I like bufferZone, but it does need a little help from the person using it. When your computer has booted up, and before you have done anything else, you need to right click its icon, and tell it to "unload." If you fail to do so, things will start going wrong. Your computer may lock up. I unplugged mine, and it was not damaged. Since that adventure I have always remembered to "unload" BufferZone. I think it really does make Firefox run a little faster. showShow review details
