Re: [Qemu-devel] Have any ideas about how to detect whether a program is running inside QEMU?

My program is a utility for internet payment. It takes an important role in
the payment process to ensure security.  One of the key functions is that
the program should detect which machine is paying. So while virtual machine
(like QEMU) is present, it can cheat the program.
Checking the hard disk model, cpu type, and other hardward informations
makes little sense.  Because the users or the hackers can easily modify
these informations. So I need a QEMU internal checking method that hackers
can't easily bypass.

Thanks
