What does the happy virus do to your computer?

Answer 1

As far as I know there is no Runescape virus, my best bet is you went on a fake website claiming they were the real thing. I've never Received a virus from Runescape and I've played for 5+ years now.

Note: There is no Runescape 3, and all claims of a Runescape 3 are false, if a Runescape 3 is ever released you can see the true information on Runescapes official homepage (Below in the Related Links Section) this is also the genuine website for Runescape.

Answer 2

Essentially, Worms are dead. what worms used to do was steal info from you computer, and then automatically spread on its own, i.e. emailing your contacts, e.t.c if you get a worm, just delete the file, theres nothing else it could do.

Answer 3

no it's possible but it's to much difficult to make it happen.

A worm called stuxnet is the first malware that used this vulnerability,actiully after that kaspersky i think discovers it they made a report to windows who officialy admit it.

Answer 4

There are many different trojans in circulation. At the time of writing this text, the a-squared Anti-Malware software can detect over 3 million different trojans and malware files, and this number will continue to rise in the future.

Some of them may be relatively "harmless" to your system, and may simply use your computer as part of a co-ordinated Denial of Service attack on another system. Some of them may open up the possibility of someone accessing your machine, but may remain unused for years.

Other Trojans pose a far greater effect to your computer and your data. Some may monitor your internet connection and grab your email addresses and access passwords. Perhaps your email will be intercepted, perhaps credit card details that you store or enter will be copied, or perhaps someone, somewhere, will simply have a wander through your hard drive, seeing if there's anything of interest.

When they've finished, maybe they'll leave the door open to others, maybe they'll come back at a later date, or maybe they'll install something even worse on your system, just for the hell of it.

Whatever the Trojan, and whatever the result of it being there, one thing is for certain. You don't want it there, and you need to protect your system from this happening.
