One would think that perhaps just owning a windows box
(unfortunately I don't,) would be a good plausible
deniablity tactic for PC based crimes since one could
just claim that you were owned/hacked. :)

While this sounds like a joke, it does seem like we
are at the point where the average Joe non-technical
user cannot really be expected to know what his
machine is doing at all times, and one would expect
most real PC crimes to actually be committed that way.
 Afterall, a true criminal is not going use his own
IP!
