there is no plausable deniability if it does something different in a VM. that takes active coding to set up, there is no reason anyone would ever have any code that has this effect.

this is unbelievably malicious! In our earlier discussion there was some discussion about the installer asking for permission to install crapware. in fact if you're going to do malware stuff like this, why even ask?

On a technical level - how come you can detect VM's? with something like BOCHS and if you lie about wall time inside your OS, can't it emulate a PC perfectly? How does crapware know whether it's in a VM or not?
