you know nearly every cracked executable runs in a similar fashion?

they are already nearly indistinguishable from malware.

your average anti-virus program will flag a cracked executable every time, and you can routinely spot the less savvy users by viewing any torrent comment section and looking for "AVG FLAG AS TROJAN DO NOT DOWNLOAD"
