[QUOTE="SparkyMac, post: 1596347, member: 329439"] Definition: a piece of code which is capable of copying itself and typically has a detrimental effect, such as corrupting the system or destroying data. How things work website: Computer viruses are small programs or scripts that can negatively affect the health of your computer. These malicious little programs can create files, move files, erase files, consume your computer's memory, and cause your computer not to function correctly. I know the different thank you very much. My computer science degree sorted that out many years ago. The virus had spreader itself by users accessing particular network drives. Like I said, I can't specifics but the whole story would have explained exactly how it worked and the affect it caused on the network, etc. "Loving the OS X Yosemite bugs right now :P" [/QUOTE]
