About this document
Understanding Computer Virus Types by Nickay P is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Viruses spread from one computer to another when infected executable code is transferred, such as via email attachments, removable media, or shared network drives. They infect files and programs that are then shared or copied, allowing the virus to replicate. Examples of virus infections include the Melissa virus, which spread through infected Word documents in emails, and the Conficker worm, which exploited unpatched systems and open shares to spread across networks.
