You're not going to find an AV that doesn't flag modifications as virus/malware. That's kind of the definition of malicious behaviour by a program.

Hell, Windows itself will overwrite changes you make to certain exscutables/dll's, etc, with its own file protection system.

Test your cracks in a VM. Then use them as needed, or do the cracking in a VM.
