An app that deletes files on another persons Mac, blocks certain functions of the OS, and reports stuff really sounds like a trojan to me. I guess Apple has done a lot to prohibit this kind of behaviour from apps, so even if the app made by the thread-starter is legit, the mechanics would be useful for someone developing malware. In my opinion, the greater good of protecting the masses outweigh the commercial interest of the thread-starter, and Im certain Apple would never let an app like this be distributed through the Mac App Store, nor help with developing it.
But if the thread-starter really needs this kind of capability, there are enough forums out there with the clientele and the proper competence to help getting something like this done.
Talk to the ppl behind MacKeeper for example, they know their way around the shady parts of the community… ;)
