Once a system is infected, I prefer to use virus scanner boot cd's.

Kaspersky Rescue Disk - Load Kaspersky AntiVirus 2009 Using DOS

This will boot up..load network card driver and download latest virus dat file/scan/remove.

Personally if you have to go as far as using a Sandboxie program on a personal computer to prevent infection I think that user SERIOUSLY needs a lesson.

I don't run AV and very seldomly run a spyware scan.

Its all common knowledge...

1) Don't use IE
2) Don't use Outlook/Windows Mail
3) Don't use Incredimail

Antivirus 2010 uses sandboxie in order to infect machines, coincidently.
