Understanding Malware
Summary:
Malware, short for Malicious Software, is a code designed to infiltrate or damage a computer without the user’s knowledge.
Article Body:
Malware comes in various forms, each posing unique threats to your computer's security. Here are the five main types:
1. Virus:
A virus is a self-replicating program that spreads by infecting network files, CDs, USB drives, and other media without the user’s awareness. For protection, consider using a reliable free antivirus like AVG.
2. Trojan Horse:
Often appearing legitimate, a Trojan horse performs harmful actions, such as granting unauthorized access, installing keyloggers, disabling security software, or downloading spyware. To combat Trojans, you can use Spybot Search and Destroy, available for free online.
3. Adware:
Adware automatically displays advertisements on your computer and can invade your privacy. Developers often use it to cover software costs. To deal with adware, Ad-Aware is a highly recommended tool.
4. Rootkit:
Rootkits give attackers complete control over your system without your knowledge. Since they often modify the boot sector or masquerade as drivers, they can be challenging to remove. Sophos Anti-Rootkit is an effective solution for detecting and eliminating them.
It's crucial to stay informed about these threats and use appropriate tools to protect your system. Regular updates and vigilant monitoring can help maintain your computer’s security.
