Sandboxie question.

I did a scan with Malwarebytes which flagged Sandboxie four times as malware.
What's you opinion of the version being developed by Tom Brown?

Apparently no one has heard any news from Tom Brown and his Sandboxie fork for months and he no longer seems to be replying to emails so personally I wouldn’t hold out too much hope of it going much further.

If the Malwarebytes warnings are becoming a PITA just add Sandboxie to the Malwarebytes “Allow List".

Thanks Gillor.
Please can you tell me what a PITA is?

After installing Windows 10 a couple of months ago I took the opportunity of upgrading to this latest David Xanatos incarnation of Sandboxie, albeit the Classic interface as opposed to the Sandboxie Plus UI.

Both are virtually identical performance wise so it's just a matter of choice as to which you prefer. 

Like me, those used to the original interface me will probably prefer the Classic version.
