Difference between a trojan and a virus?
What is the difference between a trojan and a virus.What is the essential difference.Can a trojan also be a virus? Can it be as dangerous as a virus? If I dont have sensitive information on my pc,should I be worried about trojans?
the answer is how they f your comp up. its as simple as this -
trojan - hidden program in your pc, can log every button you press and log every website you visit and send it to the person who made it an email. in effect they might get an email that says- hey so and so logged onto a banking website and typed in these digits – bam that girl or guy has got your login details to you online bank/ any other web password you have on your PC.
virus - this can stop you machine and f it right up… thats about it… what I would suggest, and I tell you right now it is not that hard – keep all your personal files on an external hardrive and learn how to re-format and reboot. it is fn easy. these punks who come over and charge you a $1000 bucks to look at your pc, 90% of the time they are rebooting your sht. if you keep everything external you can reboot the machine yourself without loosing anything. I tell you what, if your PC is full of viruses and crap, pay some poncho to come around and fix it, but sit there with him and ask how he did it. also I would ask him to show you how to reformat you machine.
roll with that bit of advice if you want.
A virus uses your computer to replicate and spread itself to others. A trojan doesn’t. In all other respects, yes, they can do exactly the same things.
A computer virus attaches itself to another program and spreads whenever that program is run.
A trojan horse is a program that appears to do something you want but instead does something sles (usually destructive).
A worm is a kind of virus but has the ability to propogate itself without someone intentionally running the program.
All three categories are considered malware.
Of course you should be considered about all three kinds of malware. Never open emails and especially attachments from people you don’t know. Don’t run programs that come from suspicious places. Consider running software to detect malware.
