The NDIS driver used in Virtual PC 2007 is NDIS 6. As you can see in the image below, you have the possibility to select the available networks modes and adapters. The NDIS driver is available through the bridged mode.
More information can be found on the official Technet page setup by Microsoft.

The Virtual PC application is still available for downloading. However, the add-ons are not available from other website, because they're embedded into the application. After an OS is installed, you can access the additions from the main menu of the Virtual PC, more exactly from Tools. Yes, the additions are available only from within the application.
