| | Miscellaneous - Computer Viruses - what are they and how to fight them? |
 | | Virus can not sneak to your computer by itself - either it was hiding on diskettes or even on a CD, or you have accidentally downloaded it from a computer informational network, or maybe you had virus in your computer from the very beginning, or, worst of all, some hacker lives in your home. |
| | Therefore the first virus was born in the very beginning of 1970s or even in the end of 1960s, although nobody was calling it a virus then. |
| | Luckily this virus was born dead - its second generation refused to propagate due to several errors in the code. |
