Most of the keygens themselves contain viruses. I am also a system admin. I clean up after them as a side business. Any package of software that you get from any source other than the provider or their agents is subject to tampering. My computer cost a good deal of money. I don’t want to trash it over a poor decision like installing hacked software.
From my perspective if a person installs a hackware version of Vegas they most likely will get poor performance and a variety of other problems. As an added bonus they get the opportunity to pay someone like me $135-$200 to fix their system. I usually keep pretty quiet if I find evidence of hackware – call it job security.
