Why did the hijackers from 911 hijack planes?
The 9/11 hijackers hijacked the planes because Osama bin Ladin and the fellow members of al Quada are Muslims. That means that they believe in Allah. (or God) They hijacked planes because they have 24,000 gallons of jet fuel in the plane! They bought little knives that anybody can buy from a hardware store so nobody would think that they would hijack a plane and kill about 4,000 people!

Why it is unethical to create computer virus?
Computer viruses can do damage to people's computers. They can destroy important data. This can have all sorts of affects, from personal inconvenience through to disrupting the operations of major organisations and vital services. The creators of these viruses may get their kicks or some sort of "buzz" from doing this, but they are achieving nothing positive. Many of those that write viruses are highly skilled computer people, who unfortunately use their talents in a negative way. They are in effect a form of technological vandals. Their work may not be as evident as those doing things like breaking windows, damaging public property or theft, but they do have negative and often far reaching consequences. So creating computer viruses, like any other sorts of needless vandalism and criminal activity, is unethical.

What do you do with viruses in the virus vault?
Some antivirus programs have a folder which may be named something like "virus vault", "virus chest", "quarantine", etc. These folders are special folders that the program sets so files inside them cannot run or access other files. The point behind these folders is that by moving viruses and other malicious files into them, they can't run and can't harm your system. Usually, it's a good idea to delete the files in this folder using your antivirus if they can't be disinfected.
