Computer Viruses~

Computer viruses come in many varieties. They can attack anytime when you are not aware especially the pop ups that suddenly appears on the desktop. Your friends may also be the one who doesn’t realize that the viruses are in the laptop or computer which will automatically be sent to the others through pen drives or other devices. Others might not be careful and clicks on it which then, will cause your laptop or computer to be attacked by the virus. Some viruses may be strong. It is so strong that it can destroy the hard disk and the computer or laptop may need to be reformatted. Some may be minor ones which can be fixed with anti-virus programs.

Computer viruses can be found when you download a song, video or something that your computer is not protected with any anti-viruses software. Viruses can be transferred by MSN or email which is unknown. One example of a common virus is the one from MSN which get sent even though the person appears to be offline. It will say that your friend has a picture or even a card to share with you. You may be curious to find out what it is. That’s when the virus gets “transmitted” to your computer or laptop and starts to spread to other people on your contact list. Online game can be another cause.

So you people out there! Make sure that your computer is safe from viruses. To limit the problems that will occur, do not forget to install an anti-virus program. PLEASE DO NOT OPEN UNKNOWN FILES!
