Question
What is difference between Trojan,warms,and Virus?
Answer
 
Malware: This is a big catchall phrase that covers all sorts of software with nasty intent. Not buggy software, not programs you don’t like, but software which is specifically written with the intent to harm. Virus: This is a specific type of malware that spreads itself once it’s initially run. It’s different from other types of malware because it can either be like a parasite that attaches to good files on your machine, or it can be self-contained and search out other machines to infect. Worm: Think of inchworms rather than tapeworms. These are not parasitic worms, but the kind that move around on their own. In the malware sense, they’re viruses that are self-contained (they don’t attach themselves like a parasite) and go around searching out other machines to infect. Trojan: Do you remember that story you had to read in high school about the big wooden horse that turned out to be full of guys with spears? This is the computer equivalent. You run a file that is supposed to be something fun or important, but it turns out that it’s neither fun nor important, and it’s now doing nasty things to your machine.
