Sandboxie is Windows Application that let you run softwares in sandbox. Sandboxie intercepts changes to your files and registry and disallow the application to change or write anything on your computer.

Sandboxie will create a transient storage area on your hard disk and the Sandboxed application will only be able to write in that area. If the application contains viruses or spyware, they will be trapped in the sandbox, and will disappear when you throw away the sandbox.

You can download Sandboxie from here. Dont forget to read the Sandboxie Getting Started guide.
