Virtualized OS's are sometimes thought to be a secure means of anonymizing what you do (like a virtual TAILS). My advice would be to have a failsafe for your host OS to avoid that problem, other than not using virtualization at all.
If Tor hosts were smart, they would use simple http websites. Then anyone could use lynx or text-based browsers on Tor (for when you can't even trust your browser). But it seems none are all that smart, so it's a hopeless cause.

i smell bull same as all this Tor is compromised stuff. If your to stupid to use Tor. or Tails safely then dont use it. the only security flaw i know of with Tails and Tor is addons like javascrypt and user stupidity (sadly the last part is hard to educate and nearly impossible to update)

This is what i mean. Hope can help to understand what I mean.
@OP Are you sure you're not confusing a virus with a venerability in Tails, which is a possibility?

i thought Linux viruses were very rare because you need to give them privileges to do anything. I have not heard of tails yet.
They are rare, but not impossible. However, this guy is talking about tails which I've not heard of a virus infecting it. Make sure you download a safe copy and run it from a live cd and you should be fine.

Yes but it seems to be make your cpu rans as bastard and then your VM is not recognized as itself. Not seems to be a rootkit, maybe a software to knows the identity of tor's users, expecially DM's vendors as I've red in some onion forums
Haven't heard of any Tails OS viruses about.

Hi,
looking for in DarkWeb I fuond some evidences about a new malwere installing in your device kernel (or sub-kernel, I've not understand yet). Anyone knows somenthing about it? I've heard somenthing about cpu huge usage, but it is difficult to understand what it is for real. Anyone have heard somenthing?
