i tested a pre-activated pirated Win8.1 in a VM ; i did a preventive scan with some AVs
EAM found 36 threats, some inactive backdoor/trojans , one dormant ransomware (surely waiting to be activated remotely) , some hacked registry keys that :
- disabled/disallowed to run several famous AVs or malware-killers (MSE/win8 defender, KIS , Avira, MBAM, SAS, BD, Avast, combofix, gmer, etc...etc...);
- blocked the advanced functions of Task Manager or Regedit
- disabled group policies and other functions
etc...
MBAM v2 couldn't run, expected because the reg keys.
HMP could run and its scans found only 5 of those threats. (some registry keys and backdoor/trojans)
WSA could run and found 2 threats (the backdoor/trojans) , it was expected that WSA missed the reg keys since it works mostly on active threats.
all this to say, if you use a cracked OS , be sure it is released by a renown serious grey hat hack club and even you will have lot of forensic to do.
thanks
