But they share several attributes of biological viruses, hence they have been referred as computer viruses. TYPES OF COMPUTER VIRUSES; Computer viruses cause damages (in some cases, death) to the system. They infect the sensitive organs of the system thereby reducing the performance and the working capacity of the system. They also induce poor working ability to the entire system. There are several types of known computer viruses militating the performance of computer. some of the known viruses include the following.

Once the computer reads the sector, the viruses becomes destructively active. Viruses are destructive software that spread from one program to another or from disk to disk. Computer viruses, like biological viruses, need a host (victim) is an innocent program. If a computer program is transferred to another system, the programs in the entire system will be ruined automatically. SOLUTION TO COMPUTER VIRUSES. There are always solutions to every problems, however there are several methods that can be used to detect or destroy viruses. Each method has its potency and weakness.
