What is a computer virus?  Computer viruses are small software programs that are designed to spread from one computer to another and to interfere with computer operation.

Worm  Copy of the worm scans the network for another machine that has a specific security hole.  Copy itself to the new machine using the security hole and start replicating.

Viruses  Moves around in messages  Usually replicate itself by automatically mailing itself to dozens of people in the victim’s address book.  Example “MELISSA VIRUS”

Types of Viruses  File infector virus  Infect program files  Boot sector virus  Infect the system area of a disk  Master boot record virus  infect disks in the same manner as boot sector viruses. The difference between these two virus types is where the viral code is located.  Multi-partite virus  infect both boot records and program files  Macro virus  infect data files. Examples: Microsoft Office Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Access files

Symptoms of Virus Attack  Computer runs slower then usual  Computer no longer boots up  Screen sometimes flicker  PC speaker beeps periodically  System crashes for no reason

How the attack computer  can be disguised as attachments of funny images, greeting cards, or audio and video files.  Computer viruses also spread through downloads on the Internet.

How to protect the computer  Upload the latest updates  Antivirus tools  Stay informed about recent threats,  Run your computer as a standard user (not as administrator  Follow a few basic rules when you surf the Internet, download files, and open attachments.
