Security Websites

• Trojan Horse
• A type of computer virus disguised as a
  program. The scenario usually happens like this
  a user may download a program from the Net
  because they think it may be of some use but
  once the program is opened (or run), it releases
  a virus that erases their hard drive or wreaks
  havoc on their system. A popular Trojan horse
  virus came in the form of an e-mail attachment of
  a file called "AOL4FREE.COM," and the "I Love
  You" virus is another example.
