Sandbox program for 64 bit?
Is there a sandbox type program that works on win7 x64? I heard there is something like patchguard that prevents it, but maybe there is a program that works with it?

It's tricky to use sandbox programs on 64-bit due to PatchGuard kernel protection..
From what I've seen, the protection programs that do work in 64 bit use the Shadow Copy services to run on a virtual copy of the system partition or some such scheme.

The Avast beta IS has a process virtualization module (sandbox) that works on x64. A work in progress though, certainly has bugs, but it looks promising. Avast 5 IS won't be free when it's finalized though.

Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 also supports Windows x64 with it's "Sandboxed" virtual safe environment.
