Hints
Easy money
Early in the game, if you do not interrogate the maid, the agents of good will not stop you at all. For example, if you did not torture the maid and put 30 workers on the Asian subcontinent, you will make $15,000 every minute, and not call the attention of the good guys.
Defeating Dirk Masters
Dirk Masters is difficult to kill. Do not keep him in your jail cell, because in a short period of time he will escape and set explosives all over the room. Keep him outside of your base at all cost. Dirk can be defeated by infiltrating his gym. He always works out at the Mid-Coast. You are only able to do this when you are allowed to do (by the optional objectives). Keep him outside as long as you can and he will return to HQ if he cannot get in. Note: It is possible to win the game without defeating John Steele, the last super agent.
Defeating Jet Chan
Challenge him in a "fair" match in a dojo. You will poison his refreshments before the fight, and thus win. Since he is never defeated (fairly), he will "lose face" and quit A.N.V.I.L, hide somewhere, and leave you alone.
Defeating Katherine
After a period of time defeating Jet Chan, Katherine can be defeated by stealing her cute teddy bear (Mr. Snuggles) whom she always cares about. The teddy bear can be found in Siberia where she came from.
Defeating Mariana Mamba
Capture then interrogate her with an Examination Chair (build an Infirmary when you can and put an Examination Chair in it). She will grow fat and be defeated.
