Virus - A computer virus is a computer program that can copy itself and infect a computer. The term "virus"  is also commonly but erroneously used to refer to other types of malware, including but not limited to adware and spyware programs that do not have the reproductive ability. A true virus can spread from one computer to another (in some form of executable code) when its host is taken to the target computer; for instance because a user sent it over a network or the Internet, or carried it on a removable medium such as a floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB drive. Viruses can increase their chances of spreading to other computers by infecting files on a network file system or a file system that is accessed by another computer.


Addware -  (ADvertisementWARE) Software that periodically pops up advertisements on a user's computer. It displays ads targeted to the individual user based on key words entered in search engines and the types of Web sites the user visits. The marketing data are collected periodically and sent in the background to the adware Web server. Adware is known as "contextual marketing." 

Spyware - Software that secretly gathers information about a person or organization.Any malicious software that is designed to take partial or full control of a computer's operation without the knowledge of its user.



Spam - To mass-mail unrequested identical or nearly-identical email messages, particularly those containing advertising. Especially used when the mail addresses have been culled from network traffic or databases without the consent of the recipients. Synonyms include UCE (Unsolicited Commercial Email), UBE (Unsolicited Bulk Email).Trojan - A malicious security-breaking program that is disguised as something benign, such as a directory lister, archiver, game, or (in one notorious 1990 case on the Mac) a program to find and destroy viruses!




Internet Hoax - A hoax is a deliberate attempt to deceive or trick people int he internet into believing or accepting something which the hoaxer (the person or group creating the hoax) knows is false.
