Are humans like virus's

Answer 1

Some viral diseases are curable and some are not. This will change with time as we learn ore about specific viral diseases.

There are also many viruses that do not cause human disease and for them there is no need to determine whether a "cure" can be found.

Answer 2

A computer virus is nothing more than a computer program. Same with Worms and Trojan Horse Programs. They're just code written by a person (or people, as the case may be.)

From the McAfee Security home page:

"Virus - A computer program file capable of attaching to disks or other files and replicating itself repeatedly, typically without user knowledge or permission. Some viruses attach to files so when the infected file executes, the virus also executes. Other viruses sit in a computer's memory and infect files as the computer opens, modifies or creates the files. Some viruses display symptoms, and some viruses damage files and computer systems, but neither symptoms nor damage is essential in the definition of a virus; a non-damaging virus is still a virus."

ALSO: "Worm - Worms are parasitic computer programs that replicate, but unlike viruses, do not infect other computer program files. Worms can create copies on the same computer, or can send the copies to other computers via a network. Worms often spread via IRC (internet Relay Chat). "

AND: "Trojan Horse - A Trojan horse program is a malicious program that pretends to be a benign application; a Trojan horse program purposefully does something the user does not expect. Trojans are not viruses since they do not replicate, but Trojan horse programs can be just as destructive."

To answer your question, No, and sort of yes.

There are some viruses that modify themselves slightly during replication, and therefore become products of their own evolution, but even these were specifically written to do so by a human being.

No- they are in a different kingdom altogether.
