Shareware is a limited time trial under which you can try most if not all features of the software. At the end of the trial the software is locked down and prompts the user to buy the game if they like it. Shareware usually leaves behind persistent data even after having been installed which stops the user from merely reinstalling the software to get a new time trial. Certain other, specialized, tools are required for 'cleaning' all traces of the software ever being installed on the computer. Illegal pirated software is a fully functional version of the game shared illegally online. It usually have little to no restrictions, except for features requiring interactivity with an official central server, and isn't supported by the developers. Shareware = Legal time trial of a software. Pirated Software = Illegal use of a software you do not have the right to use.

These differences impact how software products can be used, shared, and distributed, depending on the terms of the specific license.
Why do you think that pirated software is far more likely to be infected with viruses than original software by manufacturers?
Obviously, a company that distributes their own software with viruses in it is not going to be in business very long. As to why pirated software so often contains viruses, it is important to understand the "community" that supplies pirated software. Cracking software is seen by many young programmers as a way of displaying their "leet" skills. It is often seen as a rite of passage to crack a complex encryption algorithm. When crackers feel their accomplishments are unappreciated by others, they often lash out at "leechers", or non-crackers who download pirated software but do not contribute to providing / cracking it. The cracker extracts his revenge, the leecher "learns his lesson" for not "respecting" the cracker community more and falling into their trap due to not having "leet" skills, and life carries on.
