Wow... that would be great.

All that remains is an algorithm to reliably determine which programs do "shady shit". How is it that you determine that Microsoft updates have not been tampered?

(insincere) apologies for the snarky tone. You are making light of a very hard problem and default deny until confirmed by the user isn't a bad first approximation.
