virus: a software program capable of reproducing itself and usually capable of causing great harm to files or other programs on the same computer; "a true virus cannot spread to another computer without human assistance" (definition source: google define)(image source: http://cathylwood.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/computer-virus-bugs-clip-art-thumb3167674.jpg) | |
