in the Tor VM experiment from years back (2007) Qemu was used because it could be run as a restricted user once the Windown Tap and Pcap drivers were installed.
That's also the case for VirtualBox. So just get admin rights to install the drivers, and then give them up again.
throughput was poor, and this is the crux of a non-admin virtualization environment - performance demands privileges!
less a problem for headless network appliances - a real big problem for interactive graphical user interfaces...
