Computer virus - definition
A common type of malicious software (malware) that, when executed, replicates itself by inserting copies (possibly modified) into other computer programs, data files or the hard drive's boot sector; if this replication succeeds, the affected areas by it are often said to be "infected". Viruses often perform some types of harmful activities on infected hosts, such as stealing hard drive's space or the CPU time, accessing private/sensitive information, displaying political or humorous messages on the user's screen, spamming their contacts, or logging user's keystrokes. However, not all viruses carry destructive payloads or attempts to hide.
A good majority of them target computers running Windows.
