Xenocode, a
leader in application virtualization and delivery technology from Seattle, created an interesting showcase for his application virtualisation technology called the Xenocode Browser Sandbox. They took instances of the most common browsers today and wrapped each of them up in a virtual sandbox. The browser and the sandbox are packed inside a Windows execute-file which can be run without installing. Best of all, it is
free to download!
At Xenocode one can
download packed version of Microsoft's Internet Explorer. Version 6 is available as well as the brand-new beta of Version 8. Mozilla's Firefox, Opera, Apple's Safari and even Google's Chrome are available too.
Simply double-click the exe-file and the selected browser starts without installing anything, and it looks like a normal desktop application. All browsers can be run simultaneously , which makes it very useful for testing webpage's browser compatibility. So if you are into web development (and a Windows User) you should definitely check it out.
