Web Sandbox is a project from Live Labs, a group focused on Internet technologies. Dragos Manolescu (who worked on Live Labs and Political Streams) and Scott Isaacs (who worked on Windows Live Gadgets and is credited with the creation of DHTML) made the initial project pitch. Since then the Web Sandbox team leveraged the expertise of and talent from other groups interested in securing the web, such as Windows Live, MSN and DP Languages.

Enjoy!
