'Sandbox' type software needed to test suspicious code
I wrote some questionable source code yesterday in Java. It is intentionally designed to replicate, but not consume resources such as a virus or worm. There is a possibility that a few bugs in the code itself, may cause problems with my machne.
I heard about a 'sandbox' virtual environment that I can do al my testing in. I just wanted to know where I can get this for download.
Google, isn't finding anything useful for me.

Any virtual machine environment is a Sandbox so what you need is nothing special. Download virtualbox (free) or Vmware server (free) or any similar hypervisor, install it, install an OS then run your questionable code inside it. If it wrecks the virtualized OS its no big deal, just delete the VM and start over again.
