Seems interesting and we all know the risks with browsers, these days.

Given that it appears to rely heavily on community response its a bit of a chicken/egg problem... it probably won't be too stellar until a community builds up - but it may not hit that critical mass of users due to limitations of the small community.
Unless I misread, and the community component is more for enhancement/refinement.<

I don't think it needs input from the community to work. As they state:
In today’s Internet, malware can lurk on even the most trusted and popular websites. We can keep you safe from attack, even if you’re the first person to stumble upon malware-laced content. How does this work? When the bad content attempts to load, our behavior-based profiling algorithms identify and intercept it in real-time, before it installs itself on your computer. <

File sharing stopped working altogether. When I tried to access shared folders, I got:

Not enough server storage is available to process the command

Tried to change the value of IRPStackSize in the registry, but it didn't fix it.<

ah. That might be a problem... my home "file server" is a shared drive on my Media center...<
