On the one hand I've already trusted fitgirl with my computer and therefore my life, on the other hypervisor seems sketch even from a trusted source.

Fitgirl is a repacker, not a cracker. When you trust a cracked game, you're not trusting her.

No, you trust whoever you got it from. Either to not tamper with the game, or ensure it wasn't malware to begin with.

Edit: hm, actually, i guess that means I've only trusted fitgirl with my computer and therefore my life a handful of times.

I guess that is true to the extent that she isn't knowingly sharing infected files. And her track record IS stellar.
