Answer:

Worms spread without user intervention. They typically start by exploiting a software vulnerability (a flaw that allows the software's intended security policy to be violated), then once the victim computer has been infected, the worm will attempt to find and infect other computers. Similar to viruses, worms can spread via email, web sites, or network-based software. The automated self-propagation of worms distinguishes them from viruses.

Spam is unwanted junk mail, and just as you find that junk mail in your physical mailbox is a waste of your time and a waste of the post office’s resources, so it is that e-mail junk taxes the resources of computer systems all over the world. It is estimated that about 70% of all e-mail is spam of one sort or another.
