Answer 1

Some of the software like Keygens is recognized as Viruses, so its possible.

Answer 2

The way you install a cracked game has nothing to do with getting viruses. If the owner of the cracked content placed/replaced a virus in any of the game files, you will get a virus, done and done.

Answer 3

Thats not how viruses work. Uninstall the game from you add/remove hardware area on your computer or if you can, click the uninstall button on the game menu. A virus must be specially coded to screw up computers and game makers would not put such things in their games because they would lose ALL of their customers.

Answer 4

Do a antivirus rescue CD boot and scan. Yes crack software any time have every chance of having trojan or virus. See if you can addict yourself to any other game that is free online.

Answer 5

There are chances of having a virus but generally if the game works fine, then it means tht it doesnt have a virus
