Release v1.0.3 / 5.55.3

This build introduced a new major feature, system call hooking for Win32k system calls, it is used only for a hand full of calls currently, and is currently not working for 32 bit applications running on a 64 bit host, that limitation is being worked on.

This feature resolves the Hardware Acceleration issues with Chromium based browsers, it can be enabled like this:

If you have issues with an update installation, just uninstall the previous version keeping the sandboxie.ini and reinstall the new build.

You can support the project through donations, any help will be greatly appreciated.
