Computer Viruses

A folder holds a set of files ----- in IT a file (like a .doc document) holds user data, while a folder is a place where a number of files can be grouped for convenience (like 'my documents'). Folders can also hold other folders making the whole storage structure a tree.

To change and restructure in multiple ways, so as to show a different signature and thus avoid detection.

For instance, if you link-edit a large group of object modules, their order is not 100% critical as long as they're accessed at the proper entry point. So malware that changes the hash and the signature of the executable this way as part of its operation can be said to be polymorphic.

Plug & Play devices can be inserted/removed while Computer is running.

You need to run these 4 essential steps to remove all the spyware on your computer.

1. Run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware

2. Run the anti spyware removal programs spybot

3 Run Superantispyware

4. Run a complete scan with free curing utility Dr.Web CureIt!

Install ThreatFire

ThreatFire, features innovative real-time behavioral protection technology that provides powerful standalone protection or the perfect complement to traditional signature-based antivirus programs offers unsurpassed protection against both known and unknown zero-day viruses, worms, trojans, rootkits, buffer overflows, spyware, adware and other malware.

Install a good antivirus in your computer.

Keep your antivirus updated. If automatic updates are available, configure your antivirus to use them.

Keep your permanent antivirus protection enabled at all times.

Yes it does if you have avg or microsft security essentials.

to determine whether or not you have anti virus software installed is to check the firewall and look under virus protection.

if should be a blue colour or it should say "virus protection on".

But your anti virus is either on desktop or the bottom right hand corner in taskbar.

There's many kinds of viruses. The Trojan Horse is one.

Endpoint Protection refers to the approach of protecting a business network when accessed by remote devices like smartphones, laptops, tablets or other wireless devices. It includes monitoring status, software, and activities. The endpoint protection software is installed on all network servers and on all endpoint devices.

With the proliferation of mobile devices like laptops, smartphones, tablets, notebooks etc., there has been a sharp increase in the number of devices being lost or stolen as well. These incidents potentially translate as huge loss of sensitive data for enterprises which allow their employees to bring in these mobile devices (enterprise-provided or otherwise) into their enterprise.

What was the most difficult task you had to learn on your job at Information technology department as a research and development team or Product Release team?

Malware, a category of software which includes viruses and spyware, is one culprit. Another may be software which does not have malicious intent, but disrupts normal operations becauses of bugs/glitches.

A classic "computer virus" was designed to spread through a system or network of computers by establishing itself on files within the operating system, and then sending out copies of itself when these files were accessed. When it had spread from computer to computer, it would execute to affect all of the computers it had spread to, causing harm in some way, like continuous pop-ups or programs to cause computers to crash or reboot.

What is commonly termed a "virus" today is a "worm" or "trojan" that is designed to be downloaded and activated unknowingly by the computer's owner. There are numerous functions of trojans and worms. Some can make files unusable, or change their names on the hard drive. Others are designed to collect personal information from the computer, either by accessing files or by intercepting e-mails and data transfers. Some will log the keystrokes of a user to discover filenames and passwords.

Modern antivirus programs are designed to

-- stop viruses and trojans from entering the operating system

-- prevent them from executing once they are there

-- to remove them if they are found later.

Malicious computer software that interferes with normal computer functions or sends personal data about the user to unauthorized parties over the Internet.Malwares are one type of computer viruses.

Obviously, a company that distributes their own software with viruses in it is not going to be in business very long. As to why pirated software so often contains viruses, it is important to understand the "community" that supplies pirated software.

Cracking software is seen by many young programmers as a way of displaying their "leet" skills. It is often seen as a rite of passage to crack a complex encryption algorithm. When crackers feel their accomplishments are unappreciated by others, they often lash out at "leechers", or non-crackers who download pirated software but do not contribute to providing / cracking it. The cracker extracts his revenge, the leecher "learns his lesson" for not "respecting" the cracker community more and falling into their trap due to not having "leet" skills, and life carries on.

An electron microscope is necessary to actually see a virus.

an infected diskette is inserted into the disk drive, the virus can be copied into the computer system.

The most common ways viruses enter your system are through files added to your systen through removable media such as diskettes, files, downloaded from the Internet, and files attached to e-mails.

Diskettes.... They go back a bit! :-)

Timely then, was something I heard on the radio only this evening: businesses have sometimes been attacked from within by a sneaky physical Trojan Horse trick in which the attacker (usually a rival trying to steal commercial secrets) discreetly drops a USB stick close to the victim's front door. The hope is that some staff member will pick it up and out of unthinking curiosity, take into work and plug into his or her office computer to see what's on it. The finder does not see much, but the attackers do, unless the company's IT system is very heavily protected. One protective method allows data traffic to and from only the firm's own authorised and encoded external devices, so the computer cannot read from or write to any randomly-found or employee-owned USB stick .

your joking you wrote the question not in capitals. anyway look for a button on your keyboard that says caps lock and give it a big push and it should be fixed

Troja horses

that's funny i was researching that same question for my computer class...we must be in the same class

that's funny i was researching that same question for my computer class...we must be in the same class

Human made computer virus because he was of greedy nature. Human enjoy mading chaos sometime, because he know he made someone have bad days, and he enjoy. Human also want you money, so make computer virus that pretend being computer virus getridofer, when really not, and human make money when you pay fake not computer virus.

Shortingly, human made computer virus because human prick.

the worst computer websites/downloads to get viruses off are:

1.musicjesus

2.limewire

3.winrar

3.javascript

4.any windows live messenger scripts

5.mediafire

on the hole if you stay away from these websites or other websites that are a bit weird or any type of music sites to download free music off then you should be fine and virus free but i do recommend that you install an anti-virus software such as Malwarebytes, avast antivirus,

ad-aware or spy bot search and destroy to keep your computer fully safe from any kinds of worms, hackers, key loggers and Trojans.

Malicious code is any code designed to have an effect that is unintended by the receiver.

Viruses, Spyware and Malware are three examples.

Virus: Any code designed with the intent to damage files or disrupt hardware on a computer and to pass itself to other computers with the same intent.

Spyware: Code designed to track your usage on the internet and to deliver that information to outside marketing computers and advertise services to you.

Malware: Code designed to steal personal information such as usernames, passwords, bank account info, credit card numbers and report that information to people who may use your financial information to steal from you.

Other types may be called trojans, backdoors, worms, spyware, adware, or bloatware.

It depends what type of virus you get. Some record the key strokes and then if you put users and passwords they can get them. Some delete your files or corrupt your files Some install crap onto your computer Some just do nothing Some delete system files Some just log you off randomly.
