I like this idea. As intrigeri pointed out, this is not so much about
detecting malware for real, but really about training users about good
practices "Don't plug your Tails in an untrusted OS". I also agree that
we should explain that reinstalling is the only solution.
Though installing from the same untrusted OS really won't be.

Austin, once you get time to work on the implementation part of this, I
suggest sharing with us mockups about this would be presented to the
user on tails-ux@??? before you write the corresponding code (maybe
you can write the detection code itself first). At least regarding the
phrasing, when and how the message occurs, what's proposed as ways out
of the message, the need for extra doc, etc.
