Subject: Want to test this desktop barrier? (Unauthorized
	offer) 0day protection

Hello All,

We have an early release of consumer desktop safety software that I'd
like some feedback on. 

http://www.greenborder.com/earlyaccess/ 

Our software runs on XP SP2, and creates an application-level virtual
environment primarily (for now) for Internet Explorer.  This prevents
modification of the base system by any content in the virtual
environment.  We refer to the virtual environment as 'x-space', or
'within GreenBorder'.  We apply access control from the virtual
environment to; the filesystem, registry, user shell, COM objects, and
system calls.

Although only Internet Explorer and applications which open downloaded
attachments are supported, other applications can be launched in the
GreenBorder environment.  Any processes running or temporary files or
temporary registry entries are wiped from the virtual environment by an
application reset.  Files can be saved to a specific directory only, and
applications in this environment are prevented from reading files
outside this one directory (applies confidentiality).

We don't determine what application running in the virtual environment
is malicious or not, so therefore this is not a replacement for
signature based protection systems.  Most anything can run in the
environment, it just can't modify local resources.  This is great
protection for 0-day exploits, and lets administrators wait to apply
patches off-hours.

Hammer on our software by running malware of your choice in the software
environment.  Please email me or the marketing email of your results.
If you're running intensive tests, I would still recommend using a
scratch system.

We also have an enterprise version which uses a central whitelist to
determine in which environment to open a site requested or Outlook
message received.
