Computer Worms

Common methods used to commit computer crimes include phishing attacks to steal sensitive information, malware that infects computers to steal data or disrupt operations, and social engineering tactics to manipulate individuals into disclosing confidential information or granting access to systems.

There are no advantages to computer crime. It is illegal, unethical, and can have serious consequences for victims and perpetrators. It undermines trust in technology and can lead to financial losses, identity theft, and privacy breaches.

In terms of day to day business, the binary number system holds no real advantage in the business world over decimal.

The binary number system is merely another means of representing numbers; akin to another language if you will. You can do the same operations in base 2 (binary) as base 10 (regular decimal) without losing any precision or inserting any errors. The advantage of base 10 is that people are taught to think on base 10. Everybody knows 2 + 2 = 4. Few know 0b10 + 0b10 = 0b100. (Note the use of the 0b prefix to signify binary.)

Where base 2 really holds it's own is in digital computing systems. In a digital system a data line is either on or off, 1 or 0. You cannot represent a base 10 digit on a single dateline. To directly represent a base 10 number digitally you need four datelines per digit. (This is known as Binary Coded Decimal.) However, this method is wasteful as 4 binary digits can store 0-15 but is only being used for 0-10. Also, because of that discontinuity special circuitry is required. With binary, the full range of the data bus (2 ^ (number of lines (bits)) can be utilized. Half-adders can be used for adding, and the twos-compliment method for storing negative numbers can be used which allows for subtraction using half-adders. Binary allows digital systems to operate. This, however, is unseen to most business people as knowledge of exactly how a calculator works is not requisite to use one.

I'll sum up with an old joke: There are 10 kinds of people in the world: Those who understand binary and those who don't.

no because they'd die and btw they eat soil

virus signatures

Computer worms are malicious software applications designed to spread via computer networks. Computer worms are one form of malware along with viruses andtrojans. A person typically installs worms by inadvertently opening an email attachment or message that contains executable scripts. Once installed on a computer, worms spontaneously generate additional email messages contaning copies of the worm. They may also open TCP ports to create networks security holes for other applications, and they may attempt to "flood" the LAN with spurious Denial of Service (DoS) data transmissions.

A worm may infect a computer without any action on the users part, or it may trick a user into performing an action which would allow it to infect the computer; though a worm that requires a user to propagate borders on being a Trojan horse, which is another form of malware.
Worms may propagate over a computer network, portable storage, or any other means in which any data could enter a system by exploiting unpatched vulnerabilities in the computer's software.

For one example, the setae help the worm resist being pulled from a hole in the groung by a bird.

Computers use a bunch of on and off switches and don't think of numbers in groups of 10 like humans. They use powers of 2 because each switch can only be made in 2 functions; on or off with only two digits.

the history of coputer viruses started in the 1980's. since of three factors. because of popularity and eager to use.

You need to run these 5 essential steps to remove all the spyware on your computer.

1. Run Deckard's System Scanner (DSS)

2. Run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware

3. Run the anti spyware removal programs spybot

4 Run Superantispyware

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

Install threat fire which will enhance your antivirus protection

you check if all ur informatoin that you had on it is still there if not take if to a PC work shop anjd get it fixed

Yes - the vast majority of computer viruses can be removed, or disabled by most anti-virus software. The trick is - to keep your anti-virus software, and definitions database up-to-date, as people are writing new viruses on a daily basis !

A virus is a piece of code that attaches itself to a program or file so it can spread from computer to computer. They can also try to damage your software, your hardware, and your files. To protect your PC from virus, you'd better enable one antivirus program on your computer.

turn off internet then ur safe

Worm can very in size. They can be microscopic or grow to a littler over three feet in length. The most well known worm is an earthworm.

they fertilize the plants. its kind of like giving your dog or cat special nutrients food... the worms poop out plant-enriching nutrients.

worm will not effect ur computer

but ,tronjent will currept all the files & disable the task manager...

>Worm viruses will duplicate your folder and end up eating your disk space and your disk memory. On tronjent or Trojan horse will make your executable files corrupt. Both are serious virus since they delete, destroy and duplicate files. In which Anti-viruses can't cope with this problem. The last option is to reformat your computer.

A virus is a program that is designed to spread from file to file on a single PC, it does not intentionally try to move to another PC, and it must replicate, and execute itself to be defined as a virus.

A worm is designed to copy itself (intentionally move) from PC to PC, via networks, internet etc.

A worm doesnt need a host file to move from system to system, whereas a virus does.

So worms spread more rapidly then viruses.

The word 'Virus' has become a common term a lot of people use to refer to worms and trojans too. Which is not exactly correct.

yes, they prefer damp and dry areas and dont like the really wet areas so when it rains they come to the top of the soil because its to wet for them at the bottom.

You can get a computer virus in any number of ways. Viruses usually spread to your computer disguised as a useful program that you download and install yourself. Viruses can also spread by exploiting bugs in programs many people use, like Internet Explorer, in order to run code on your computer that will let the viruses install themselves. Viruses can spread this way in both emails and files.

I think it is, because its an external memory.

A computer worm is a self replicating piece of software. If you have other computers on your network some worms can send copies of itself to the other computers. Worms also consume a lot of bandwidth.
