It only stops analysis after like 10 seconds. The app will remain in sandbox until you close it or it closes itself. Malware usually just starts, tries to do its thing and terminates.

Hi.

I updated it from v6 to v7 on Windows Xp 32 system and it's went easy. Thanks Avast!

The my.avast.com is working now, but in the Licenses list there is just the free license but my IS license not. (I have 2 computer)

I consider this to be a bug that needs to be addressed. I was testing the auto-sandbox with the test file and it popped up asking me what to do since I have it set on ask. So far so good and just as it always has. Then when I told it to run in the sandbox, the other window popped up saying it was being analyzed. After a bit it said not enough evidence was found to consider it malware. Again , all well and good. Now here comes what I consider to be a bug. The analyzing window then closed but also terminated the sandbox test program so there was no way to actually test whether it could make any changes to the system or not. It does the same thing on every try. I don't think this is the proper behavior for the feature. It should not terminate the app that is running in the sandbox unless it was found to be malicious.

The "Ask" mode in AutoSandbox will actually be completely removed in the next update, as it lacks sense in the new v7 logic.
That is, in v7, the AutoSandbox is primarily an analysis tool.
We actually plan to even further watermark/transparentize all the UI elements of autosandboxed apps, to make it apparent that the app is being analyzed and it's not meant for "normal" use.

Just noticed that the cloud services are not connected at time. Also noticed that the final version stopped showing if its connected or not. Perhaps to hide the fact that its not always connected?  :o
