I do miss the days when you could just download a keygen and get something licensed. Nowadays most keygens are just virus/malware installation packages unfortunately, with a few exceptions. To be honest it's probably easier and safer to just use one of the repacks from a trusted source since they are 'precracked' and that work has been done for you.
Cracking my legitimate copy of StarCraft just so I could play the game without the CD was how I started my piracy adventure.
