I've got a virtual-box VM dedicated to this kind of thing. Install all your tools first from trusted sources, freeze that image and go wild.

Have you ever looked at Sandboxie? I like it, but it's probably not as secure as a VM.

That looks interesting, are you using it?

Is it as safe as it looks?

I've used it for years and I like it.

However, I'm not prepared to make any statements about how safe it actually is. I don't have quite deep enough security expertise to know that.

yeah, I haven't had any problems using it to run various programs completely sandboxed.

Especially when the download also includes *.exe files like in this case.
