Your lucky if thats all you got from downloading and
running a cracked program, Alot of the sites that offer
this junk will make you install ISTbar first before you
can get to the crack or serial, Once IST is active it
will install alot of different infections. Then you get
the crack and run that and you get more infections, the
most common one through crack sites are password stealers
so then the info gets sent back to them to add new
serials to thier sites,
The last time I ran a file by using a Crack site I got
all these infections (Note this was just on a test pc and
was intentionally infected)

eXact.BargainBuddy, IST.SlotchBar, IST.PowerScan,
eXact.SearchBar,
All that really did come from entering the site and
letting IST install then running one crack on a unpatched
test pc
Thanks for posting the warning I hope with your post and
this one it will help people understand these sites are
not worth using and very dangerous to download files
from, even visiting them will in some cases start the
infection if you dont have a fully patched system.
Its got to be better to buy the program or go for free
alternatives and not have to worry about these things
