- yuhong 12y agoOnly on Vista and later though.
- greggman 12y agowell let's see. in 2014 there were 214 code exploits in IE vs 4 in Chrome. I don't think IE's sandbox can really be considered tight http://www.cvedetails.com/product/9900/Microsoft-Internet-Explorer.html?vendor_id=26 http://www.cvedetails.com/product/9900/Microsoft-Internet-Ex... http://www.cvedetails.com/product/15031/Google-Chrome.html?vendor_id=1224 http://www.cvedetails.com/product/15031/Google-Chrome.html?v...
- throwawaykf05 12y agoStill doesn't change the fact that Chrome did not "pioneer" sandboxing.
- xeromal 12y agoIf the pioneer dies before he gets to california, he doesn't get the credit.
- strcat 12y agoThere is no Windows sandbox (including the Chromium one) that's comparable to the quality of Chromium's Linux implementation. Note that seccomp is a layer on top of the layer-1 sandbox implementation based on a chroot and namespaces. There is no equivalent to the layer-2 sandbox used to protect against kernel vulnerabilities on other platforms.
