Trojan horse can also be call trojan. Trojan is a software designed to damage your computer. It trick people somehow to tranfer them to their computers. Trojan horse programs cannot replicate themselves, in contrast to some other types of malware, like viruses or worms. A Trojan horse can be deliberately attached to otherwise useful software by a programmer, or it can be spread by tricking users into believing that it is a useful program. For example, you want to download a anti-virus program. You search on google and go to this site and it’s free, they say it all good and safe so you download it. When you finish download, you start to use the program but instead the program didn’t fix the problems, it is making a bigger problem. To stop and prevent it, you need to have a good antivirus program and you have to update it daily. Don’t download programs, files you are unsure about. A good antivirus program will scan through all the files you stored on your computer and files you download from the internet to eliminate the threat.
