What are computer viruses?
According to Fred Cohen’s well-known definition, a computer virus is a computer program that can infect other computer programs by modifying them in such a way as to include a copy of itself.
Computer viruses are bits of code that damage or erase information, files, or software programs in your computer, much like viruses that infect humans, computer viruses can spread, and your computer can catch a virus when you download an infected file from the Internet or copy an infected file from a diskette. Once the viruses is embedded into your computer’s files, it can immediately start to damage or destroy information, or it can wait for a particular date or event to trigger its activity.
What are the main types of viruses?
Generally, there are two main classes of viruses. The first class consists of the file Infectors which attach themselves to ordinary program files. These usually infect arbitrary .COM and/or .EXE programs, though some can infect any program for which execution is requested, such as .SYS,.OVL,.PRG,&.MNU files.
The second class is system or boot-record infectors: those viruses, which infect executable code, found in certain system areas on a disk that are not ordinary f

什么是计算机病毒?
按照 Fred Cohen 的广为流传的定义,计算机病毒是一种侵入其他计算机程 序中的计算机程序,他通过修改其他的程序从而将自身的复制品嵌入其中。
计算机病毒是一些能破坏或删除计算机中的信息、文件或程序的代码。正如 感染人体的病毒一样,计算机病毒能够扩散。当你的计算机从互联网上下载一个 被感染的文件,或者从磁盘上复制一个被感染的文件时,你的计算机就会染上病 毒。而一旦病毒进入到你的计算机文件中,它就能马上破坏或摧毁其中的信息, 或者等到某个特殊的日期或事件来临时才触发其破坏活动。
个人计算机病毒主要有哪些类型?
一般来说,主要存在着两类计算机病毒。第一类由文件感染型病毒组成,他 们将自身依附在普通的程序文件上。这些病毒通常感染任意的.COM 和/或 EXE 文件,尽管有些也感染具有执行功能的文件,如.SYS,.OVL,.PRG 和.MNU 文件.
第二类病毒是系统病毒或引导区记录感染型病毒,这些感染可执行代码的病 毒出现在磁盘的某些系统区中,而不是普通文件中。在 DOS 系统中,常见的引导 扇区病毒和主引导记录病毒,前者只感染 DOS 引导扇区,后者感染硬盘的主引导 记录和软盘的 DOS 引导扇区。第二类病毒的例子包括大脑病毒、大麻病毒、帝国 病毒、Azusa 以及米开郎基罗病毒等,此类病毒通常为驻留型病毒。
