Computer
A computer is a programmable machine designed to automatically
carry out a sequence of arithmetic or logical operations. The particular
sequence of operations can be changed readily, allowing the computer
to solve more than one kind of problem. An important class of
computer operations on some computing platforms is the accepting of
input from human operators and the output of results formatted for
human consumption. The interface between the computer and the
human operator is known as the user interface.

Computer Worms
Insert Artifact
Picture Here
A computer worm is a self-replicating malware computer program,
which uses a computer network to send copies of itself to other nodes
(computers on the network) and it may do so without any user
intervention. This is due to security shortcomings on the target
computer. Unlike a computer virus, it does not need to attach itself to
an existing program. Worms almost always cause at least some harm
to the network, even if only by consuming Bandwidth, whereas viruses
almost always corrupt or modify files on a targeted computer.
