Viruses |
A Virus is a small
program or piece of computer code that can be loaded onto your
computer without your knowledge and runs against your wishes. All
computer viruses are manmade and in some cases they can also
replicate themselves. A simple virus that can make a copy of itself
over and over again is relatively easy to produce. Even such a

of virus is one capable of transmitting itself across networks and
bypassing security systems.

various information and resources to combat the latest crop of

fictitious plea to send money or to follow an instruction which
could delete data from your computer. Whatever the latest ploy
