A while back I came across Sandboxie, a Win32/64 program that provides a sandbox barrier for Windows applications.

Offers a free basic version, and a deluxe paid one with alot more conveniences. Essentially this will provide the similar sandbox protection for web facing browsers, servers etc that AppArmor provides for Linux.

Any compromise to the server stays in the sandbox but cannot reach the operating system, so it is a good layer of protection for dev servers.

You can sandbox a program, or a folder sandboxed, so anything in it will run sandboxed (i.e. WAMP, browser.

If you download from a sandboxed browser, you have to recover the D-L's manually out of the sandbox to the operating system.

I have ran with WAMP, XAMPP, and WPN-XM (Windows Nginx/PHP/MariaDB stack) all running XOOPS.
