What are the different memory management techniques used in different operating systems?
Unix system memory management based on swapping . swappin is the process of transferring a block of data from secondary sorage to main memory and vice versa. This done to accommodate larger size of the program, to be executed, in a small sized main memory of the computer. Movement between memory and disk was handled by the upper level of the two-level scheduler, known as the swapper. Swapping from memory to disk was initiated when the kernel ran out of free memory on account of one of the following events :
1. a fork system call needed memory for a child process.
2. A brk system call needed to expand a data segment.
3. A stack became larger and ran out of the space allocated to it.

Why is it hard to detect and remove a Trojan?
A Trojan Horse is so hard to detect because of the way that many Trojan horses are written. Much like the Trojan horse presented to the Greeks by the Trojans, this deadly piece of programming poses itself like a popular game or a music or something that people want. When it is downloaded, it can become memory resident, meaning that it loads itself into the registry and hard drive and stuff like that.
Reason why its so hard to detect is because when a Trojan Horse it written, it usually is designed to kill and processes that are antivirus software processes. For example, Avira Personal Antivirus is called avguard.exe. A simple Trojan horse can automatically detect your antivirus and disable it. If you don't have antivirus to begin with, then that's even worse. Without updatedantivirus software, it is near impossible to detect the latest Trojan Horses, although it can be done.
Now onto the reason why its so hard to remove the darn things. When Trojan Horses load themselves into the registry, they are near impossible to find without time and patience. The problems double when you have 20 million things installed on your computer. Everyone of those programs have a registry key, which allow them to be executed. Delete the key, and the program cannot run. A Trojan horse also works in this manner. The huge problem is finding the registry key in between all of the other hundreds of registry keys.
If you suspect a registry key might be the Trojan Horse's registry key, then i suggest consulting a professional, or if you can't get a hold of one, send me a message @

Who is the first filipino who discovered the computer virus?
A computer virus is not something necessarily something you discover like human viruses. It is actually a small computer program one takes the time to create and design in order to penetrate the normal functionality of another computer program.
The idea of developing a virus usually doesn't surface until a large number of computers become available to people. The first computer available to consumers was in 1974 in the U.S. by IBM. Philippines was still a developing country and the understanding, need, and cost for computers were not very popular during this time.
However, some Filipinos working for IBM or institutions that had the budget for computers in the U.S. may have had an opportunity to recognize the vulnerability in computers through the development of a virus or a computer program designed to bypass a computer's security functions.
The first Filipino who discovers a computer virus is most likely the first Filipino who created it - and because of the malicious intent and risky consequences for building any virus, it is unlikely that any creator will ever reveal themselves including a Filipino computer programmer.
So an answer to your question will never be accurate.
