I've been hearing about sandbox technology for a while now but haven't heard of a mass OS adoption of it. The lack of mass adoption leads me to believe that it's more complex than one would think. With that said, how is a program that I've never heard of able to overcome those complexities and accomplish this? I'd be more interested in knowing HOW it does this. I see they have a forum...maybe they mention it there somewhere.

I don't really have a use to try it out, but I say go for it and see the results. Sometimes unheard of software does a better job than commercial software.
