People create Computer Viruses to cause harm, steal information, disrupt systems, or for personal gain.
There are hundreds of thousands of viruses out there (if not millions) and they often designed for different objectives. Most of them fall under the following categories: *To take control of a computer and use it for specific tasks *To generate money *To steal sensitive information (credit card numbers, passwords, personal details, data etc.) *To prove a point, to prove it can be done, to prove ones skill or for revenge purposes *To cripple a computer or network By: Tasmanian Devil & Angel
They are computer viruses that let hackers and other viruses in to your computer undetected. They are computer viruses that let hackers and other viruses in to your computer undetected.
Creating a computer virus is unethical because viruses do things on people's computer's without their permission. Creating and distributing a computer virus would be like using their computer without their consent. Also, depending on what the computer virus does, you could incur a number of other ethical problems - like stealing, harassment, etc.
Because they can cause harm to major computer systems like the data kept in a hospital or in a major government institution. And because they are REALLY ANNOYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, computer viruses are man-made malicious software programs designed to infect and harm computer systems.
Malicious (evil) people create computer viruses.
Computer viruses can be created to steal malware, information or anything that can be very valuable. Some people thing that people are meanies and will create viruses on purpose like apple employees and then they will create viruses for pc's so that people will go purchase a mac and vise versa but apple is much better at it if it truly does happen.
like we need more viruses
Not sure if you mean to question the virus in biology or in computer software, however I shall answer both questions. In biology viruses are actually used to combat new diseases and create cures. The can actually be used also for technology where a virus was actually used in a battery for-to power a device similar to a computer. In computer software, sometimes people create viruses as almost a hobby. They are they hackers, the thieves, or whatever you want to call them, of the CyberWorld. Viruses can be used to steal information and identities. Viruses have actually been used also to download illegally. The unknown side of viruses is that a good portion of them are actually created accidently. These are most common as boot-sector viruses. However, then can entail other forms as well. Usually they pop up when there are compatibility issues and the computer crashes. - So to answer, sometimes people create viruses for illegal purposes or sometimes they are created by accident.
They are evil
uncareful people
100%
People are trolls
The people who made computer virus are unkown.
It is generally considered unethical because computer viruses and other malicious programs harm other people's computers, which are other people's property. They also can violate other people's privacy, and also that you are accessing their computer without their permission.

Only possible positive effects are software companies that can kill viruses are very profitable and create jobs for bright young people.
