Virus
So what you need an executable that is a virus for? Are you convinced it will help you run GAMEZ and other undesirables? Are you contemplating to back-engineer it into something useful?
You know that people that are into illegal GAMEZ, P2P-ing etc. are easily framed, and big content industry is not very friendly towards the users that are into it, and hinder them in various ways (fake codecs, intentional malware, etc.), best advice I can give you: “stay clear of it, then it cannot bite you”,
