Greetings - I've been using Sandboxie as an additional layer of security. My understanding is that Firefox 57 itself runs in a sandbox, with some exceptions for libraries, configuration information, themes and fonts, as well as a few rendering and audio holes in the sandbox. Is the use of Sandboxie still appropriate? Thanks for any feedback!

No, sandboxie is no longer needed, Firefox sandboxing is secure enough!
