Depending on the personality of your company’s IT
department, it can be pretty belittling sometimes to ask them for help. As you
notice your computer is running pretty slow, you call them up and ask for help.
“I think I may have a virus.”
“I think I may have a virus.”
“Please, that’s like saying a Jedi Knight has powers. Be
more specific.” “Uh. Computer Virus?” You don't know what it is but you know
something is wrong!
Knock
them off their mismatched socks next time by studying this quick little snippet
on the different types of computer viruses.
** A virus is any unwanted program that infects your computer to decrease performance or cause damage.
**Viruses can attach to your computer by opening shady email attachments or visiting sites that aren’t trusted.
** A Trojan is one of the different types of computer virus that gains access to your files by sneaking into your computer’s hard drive. After the Trojan is inside your computer it infects it so that secret programs can then be run. Just like you don’t invite a big wooden horse full of the enemy into your city, Trojans can be turned away with antivirus and antispyware programs.
**Different types of devices that attach to a computer to monitor activity and keystrokes are known as spyware. The weird thing about spyware is that it is not always employed under illegal backgrounds. Sure, hackers may look to get into your information or bombard you with pop up Adds but employers also use it to monitor employees. You may think you’ve just gotten away with participating in that 5 hour online fantasy baseball draft but it’s documented somewhere.
**Just like finding one in your apple, a worm in your network can be annoying and distasteful. Worms are different types of computer viruses that get into the network community and bog down the system for all users.
** Adware’s also slow down your computer and attacks you while browsing the Internet. As lucky as you may think you are being the 1,000,000th visitor to a site, the person after you and the next 1,000,000 after them get the same offer. Finally, malwares get into your computer and are armed to do malicious acts.
It doesn’t matter which virus you may think you’re at risk from, proper action should be taken to avoid them all.
