Some applications copy easily (e.g. Google Earth can just copy the installation directory over), some can be a little entertaining to copy over (Crossover for example has menu items to set up). If its not obvious what to copy, then create a new user on your VM, so you have a pretty much empty directory) and install as that user. Everything the installation does must be in that user's directory.
