Can unopened viruses affect a computer?

Other than taking up space on one's computer, an unopened/unexecuted virus will not affect the computer one way or the other, except that the virus may continue to be recognized by anti-virus or similar software (assuming the computer has such a program and it is active and up-to-date), until the virus is removed or "stored" in a "safe" area on the disk, usually in an area on the computer's storage device where the anti-virus program places it (usually under direction from the user) to avoid repeated (i.e., unnecessary) detection. *New User* However remotely connecting to a computer can let the hacker run the program then leave.


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.


What is an Heuristic computer virus?

A heuristic computer virus is a virus/program that is capable of learning while running in parallel with other computer systems on a system which it is on. For example having really good anti virus detection software running along with say five or six different other programme's virus can learn passwords usernames. It can also run in parallel to systems that are heavily coded.Learning enough about the programme's codes until it can break through them.This virus can also take control of computer system's example from one that i know of is a heuristic virus hacking its way onto one of my friends computers.And in roughly one and a half weeks had all of his data files etc at its use and sent them to some place over seas. There is currently only one way to get rid of a heuristic computer virus.And it is by purging everything that you have on your computer and i mean everything.But make sure you have back ups of all your computer data before doing so or before you happened to get the virus.
