Hungry Man said:I suggest you keep something like Process Explorer open. Download the malware, run it, and see if a process is created.
Certain programs (like CIS) will allow processes to start but keep them sandboxed. Keep that in mind.

Depends on what OS you are comfortable testing on and if your system can handle it. Chose between Windows XP SP3 or Windows 7 - both require less resources and run lighter (*more responsive, less sluggish performance) than Windows Vista.
Windows XP is a 10 year old OS (and imo isn't meant for 2011 usage)
Windows 7 is a 3 year old OS (and is similar to Windows Vista)
Take your pick, but I don't recommend installing Windows Vista on the VM.

Windows XP has the least security, Windows Vista has more security than XP, and Windows 7 has even more security than Vista. So I think using Windows Vista because it is a balance between the two, what do you think?
