nope, that really isn't possible as virus are acellular organisms and in order to reproduce themselves, they need a host cell. some of those virus contain genetic information, proteins inside them and no way to duplicate it. so what they do is invade a cell that can reproduce itself, and sneak the virus genetic information into the cell's DNA. once the DNA is replicated, the virus uses its proteins to cut the portions of its material genetic and it's done. the virus is replicated

Why could a virus not infect another virus?
Viruses only infect living organisms and since they are not alive, they can not infect other viruses. The question is interesting though.
What is trap door virus?
A virA virus is a program that can "infect" other programs by modifying them. Modification includes a copy of the virus program, which may infect other programs. Computer virus has similarity with biological virus, a biological virus infects the machinery responsible for the living cell to work and a computer virus carries in its instructional code the recipe for making perfect copies of it. us is a program that can "infect" other programs by modifying them. Modification includes a copy of the virus program, which may infect other programs.

What is software downloaded from the Internet which corrupt other computer software?
That would be virus infected software. If you run a program with a virus, it can infect other files.
What is software downloaded from the Internet which corrupts other computer software?
This is typically referred to as malware, specifically a type called a virus. Viruses are malicious programs that replicate themselves by inserting copies into other programs, files, or the boot sector of the computer. They can damage software, steal information, or disrupt system operations.
How do stealth virus infect the computer?
The infect your computer by being undetected by your anti virus and posing as a harmless file.
How are viruses developed?
When creating a virus, you should think of the following: * What will it exploit? How will the virus enter a computer and not be detected? * How will the virus infect other programs? Is it a non-memory residential virus or a memory-residential virus? * How fast will it infect the host computer? In other words, will the virus spread extremely fast to destroy the computer as soon as possible or will it spread more slowly to make sure it is not detected by antiviruses? * How will the virus conceal itself? Will the virus infect antivirus programs to avoid detection, use polymorphism, or some other stealth function? Asking these questions allows you to have what virus in mind you want to make and lead the way to making the perfect specimen.

How do you describe the reproduction of polio in the body?
Polio virus can infect only human being. Like other viruses, polio virus infect the cells. After getting attached to the cell, the virus genome is inserted into the cell body. The genetic material of the host is broken into small fragments and assembled as per the genome of the polio virus. Multiple such copies are formed and then released in the body to infect the new cells.
