film "The keygen is infected with Trojans? On more than one occasion we have downloaded a program Internet Keygen / Crack / Patch to test the program with all its features and see if it deserves worth the economic cost.
Well, many times we do our virus alert saying you have a virus or Trojan. Is that true?
Yes and no. On the one hand we must bear in mind that the cracks and patches modify files, especially executable programs, which, this external action is seen as a "threat" by the virus and therefore they'll almost always say that the crack / patch is affected.
not forget that it is true that many keygen, crack and patches contain viruses and trojans inside. How do I know? make not ever urban legend "if you open and operating are healthy ", because even more precisely to disguise malicious programs that do not make the role of patch or give you the key to the program, but on the other hand, do their evil features of infection, then? have the option of spending several online antivirus , which did not give much assurance, and certainly everyone says you are infected, but in the case of the keygen, if there is an almost 100% reliable way of knowing if they are infected or not, and is:
" by the size they occupy ". A keygen is the result of decoding algorithm that uses a program to generate keys using reverse engineering . The keygen is not neither more nor less than a program that knows what steps and mathematical formulas to calculate has to do the valid key for a program and these calculations take only a few lines of code (it is us with these data and with a calculator in 1 or 2 minutes could solve the operation and get the key for ourselves), which reaches a keygen not take much more than 50kb (0.048 MB approximately), so if we downloaded a keygen and it covers 200 or 300 kb or more , we face an infected file, there may be a case of a one-stop ultrakeygen you find out the key of 9 or 10 products, so if we could reach a figure between 150 and 200 kb, but still beware and look for one that occupies approximately 50kb. Reality
business
other hand we must be aware of reality, and firms, especially multinationals such as Microsoft, Adobe, among the most important, pay and come to agreements with antivirus companies ( Eset, Kaspersky, AVG, etc..), even with the free antivirus (from somewhere will be funded, did not you think so?) to "sheet" keygen / crack / patch to take out for their programs and "scared "alerts the user with dangerous viruses and Trojans to be disposed of (what pillin eh?).
Finally and for icing on the cake, we must remember that while competing antivirus, the need the money, and therefore including also come to the same agreements ("if you find a free patch to tell my antivirus your user is a virus and delete it, and vice versa I will do with yours ") for financial safeguards.
