I remember that they'd pack the executable with Themida with the highest possible settings in order to complicate reverse engineering. Not really a huge hurdle nowadays, but they used to have the VM and anti-debug detection ratcheted up all the way and it would trigger when I had IDA open. (I believe it was a findwindow check)
