Computer Viruses

Strictly speaking, a virus adds its code to other executables to infect them (and thus spread), such that the virus code runs when the infected program(s) are run. Often, the term "virus" is used in a less formal context to mean any kind of malware, including viruses themselves as well as worms, trojans, etc.

Modern antivirus software can protect users from: malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious LSPs, dialers, fraudtools, adware and spyware.[1] Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks.

There are a few reasons it could be dangerous to end tasks in this fashion, but there are other reasons for which you would need to do it despite the risks. The biggest reason you might not want to end a process this way is data loss. If you end a program through the task manager that you are editing a document with, for example, the program might close before you have a chance to save the data. You would not want to rely on the dialog asking if you wanted to save the document to come up when you end a program forcefully through the task manager. You might also be closing a component of another program, causing it to become unstable. If you end a process that is a child process of another process, and that process is not expecting its child to close, it may cause errors. Conversely, if you end a parent process of a poorly written application, its child processes might not get closed properly, resulting in a bunch of orphaned processes running in the background stealing resources from other applications that need to be running. If an application is not responding and you can not close it in the normal fashion, the task manager is a great tool. However, it is always best to attempt to close it properly first.

­In all of these cases, the illusion is created by a special effects technique known as traveling matte or blue screen. This technique allows actors and scale models to find themselves in totally imaginary situations -- in space ships, dangling from rope bridges over gorges, flying through the air (a la Superman) -- and have it look completely real in the theater. The technique is used so often now that you don't even realize it. News reporters are made to look like they are on location when they are not, and complete segments in TV shows can be created this way to make it look like the segment was filmed on location when, in fact, no one left Los Angeles.

Totally false ! The Answers website is perfectly safe to use.

Since answers.com is running in a web browser, it should not be able to make your computer crash. If your computer did crash while accessing the answers.com web site, the problem would have to be elsewhere. it may be a problem with your web browser doing something it shouldn't or your web browser or another program requiring more memory or swap space when there isn't any available. That could result in your system hanging/waiting until resources are available and looking as if it crashed. It could also be another hardware problem or your computer failing as a result of malware.
