Yes and No. Yes, because some of them are binded with a virus, while some of them are legit. Also, this is piracy, meaning illegal.

As many people said it depend's what you're downloading. It's safe to have some good known Anti Virus such as AVG or Malwarebytes

Yes it's unsafe, on-top of this it's illegal, so I don't suggest doing such things.

Just grab a proxy and no one knows ANYTHING.

Haha.

Haha.

That stops the worry of legality sure (well 99% of the time).
But on the other hand, it's still possible to download viruses or keyloggers.

That's where a decent antivirus comes in handy. Thumbsup

I'm pretty sure new antivirus updates detects new crypts.

anti viruses never pick up all crypts hence them being fud (fully Un detectable)

Yes but once it did get detected the rat would already be active on your pc and most likely won't remove it. Once the rat is there its almost impossible to get rid of without knowing exactly how.
