Question

3 differences between Computer virus and Computer worms

Answer 1

A comp. virus inserts itself into a file or executable program where comp. worm exploits a weakness in an application or operating system by replicating itself.

Virus deletes or modifies files. Sometimes a virus also changes the location of files. Where worms usually only monopolize the CPU and memory.

Virus is slower than worms and worms are faster than virus.
