Virus Found!

What do when your computer gets a virus? Delete the infected information? Get in panic?
Well, the best way is to have a antivirus, it means, have a program to exam and destroy any type of infection or worm.
Virus is a program who may copy itself, and infest the whole computer, delete or damage some programs, virus can infiltrate in the computer without your permission. 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. The term "computer virus" is sometimes used as a catch-all phrase to include all types of malware. Malware includes computer viruses, worms, Trojan horses, most root kits, spyware, dishonest adware, crime ware, and other malicious and unwanted software), including true viruses. Viruses are sometimes confused with computer worms and Trojan horses, which are technically different. A worm can exploit security vulnerabilities to spread itself to other computers without needing to be transferred as part of a host, and a Trojan horse is a program that appears harmless but has a hidden agenda. Worms and Trojans, like viruses, may cause harm to a computer system's hosted data, functional performance, or networking throughput, when they are executed. Some viruses and other malware have symptoms noticeable to the computer user, but many are surreptitious.
Most personal computers are now connected to the Internet and to local area networks, facilitating the spread of malicious code.
The first virus apparition was in the 70s, since that time, they have modify and get more and more dangerous e difficult to remove, but the antivirus, our weapons against those evil and malicious stuffs, have also evolve, creating new ways to search and destroy the virus and spywares.
Been a virus, a Trojan Horse, adware or worm, the safe way is and will always be, to have a Firewall and a antivirus and any other program like this.
