Of course there are - but you will have to do the necessary software development yourself.GeorgeCoder wrote: I believe there are yet ways to remove this or replace the embedded Virtual cards.

There is nothing in the GUI or vboxmanage commands to change these names. You'll have to edit Virtualbox's source code to change the adapter type.
Note that if you change the adapter type to defeat the anti-virtual-machine script, then release this into the wild, the script writers will add your added device to the script. Arms race begins...

Agree with you. for long-term effect, we will need an interface for chaning NIC name freely.

That interface would need to be in Windwos, VirtualBox doesn't do anything to the way Microsoft handles hardware detection and selecting the correct drivers for the hardware.
This is all completely internal to the (guest) OS. The device name comes from the driver packages for the hardware.
(and as soon that there is a tool to easily change a device name, the detection checks would be changed not to rely on the name...)

I very much doubt that they rely on something so simply faked already. They will do a number of checks and vote the results.Martin wrote: (and as soon that there is a tool to easily change a device name, the detection checks would be changed not to rely on the name...)
I also doubt that a script is involved. A script can simply be modified.
