    I hope this has not been covered before but I have not been able to find it if it has.

    That said, can anyone explain to me what the difference between a "Virus" and a "Worm" is?

    Many Thanks.

    Hi

    Hope these links explain better than I can - you certainly do not want either !

    Virus

    Worm

    They are confusing - I just know I do not want Viruses / worms / trojans etc ;)
