Usually it is the aim of making profit. One example which is the most common is fake spyware removal programs. An alert can pop up on a site, telling you that you have an infected computer and presenting a button to "fix now" which will create more problems for you.
Another scenario is doing a free scan, then having a fake anti-spyware program detect "fake" threats or placing the threats on your computer. You are then forced to use their software program to remove such threats and pay a fee. Usually this amounts to an unhappy user and a charge on their credit card.
They can also be used to snoop around your computer, open doorways to install even more malicious threats and steal private data and commit fraud or identity theft. There are many methods, but usually with the goal of ripping people off financially.

What is the worst virus computer virus?
Well, since that (Conflicker) worm did nothing and was just a lie, the worst worm ever probably will be ILOVEYOU, or loveletter.
This worm has a love message (love-letter-for-you.txt.vbs), which is the virus. When opened, this virus attacks and sends a copy of itself to all your friends and contracts.
I'll also like to put the virus known as Slammer next to the Loveletter worm, as it is just a powerful. Why? It infected 80,000 computer in half an hour. So it's name, Slammer, lived up to it as being the fastest virus ever.
Um, signature.

What did the virus Win32 Hatred do?
Win32.Hatred is a computer virus that runs on 32 and 64 bit versions of Microsoft Windows.
It tries to infect programs, but it has a bug and might corrupt programs in attempt to infect them. It spreads when a successfully infected program is exchanged with a friend. In order to infect a program, it encrypts itself and writes itself to the end of the program.
When a successfully infected program is executed on the seventh of any month of any year, Hatred displays a Message to the screen:

A simple virus can do basic things. For instance a worm, it finds wholes in networks, and can spread to other computers from one computer. Another example is, say there is a computer room at a school. And this computer room has lets say 20 computers all connected in a network to share files through a server computer. If one computer gets a worm, depending on the worm, it could spread through a number of the computers through the network.
Worm: A type of virus that spreads through networks.
Virus: Something that infects that one computer.
Keylogger: Tracks whatever you type.
