By Definition DemonX

A common type of malicious software (malware) that, when executed, replicates itself by inserting copies (possibly modified) into other computer programs, data files or the hard drive's boot sector; if this replication succeeds, the affected areas by it are often said to be "infected". Viruses often perform some types of harmful activities on infected hosts, such as stealing hard drive's space or the CPU time, accessing private/sensitive information, displaying political or humorous messages on the user's screen, spamming their contacts, or logging user's keystrokes. However, not all viruses carry destructive payloads or attempts to hide. A good majority of them target computers running Windows. Computer viruses currently cause billions of dollars worth of economic damage. In response, when it was during the 90's decade, it led to the emergence of the billion-dollar antivirus industry, selling anti-malware protection to users.

The Melissa macro virus is the most famous computer virus that appeared on spring of 1999. Other well-known viruses also appeared as well.

A Computer Software/Application that fucks with the files on your computer.

When you install the virus, it begins to birth out it's offspring onto all of your files. The Offspring will coat these files in a subsequent amount of dung. Once the files are fully coated, they will then be sent to the Overlord of the computer Viruses. The Overlord takes his time, but he will, and I repeat, WILL!!! Do anything in his power to fuck all of your files, and it's your job to make sure that doesn't happen. Home gay
