Best Answer

Computer Viruses are most easily spread by attachments in e-mail messages or by instant messages. You must never open an e-mail attachment unless you know who sent the message or unless you are expecting the e-mail attachment. Computer viruses can be hidden as attachments of funny images, greeting card, or audio and video files. Computer viruses also spread by using downloads on the internet. Computer viruses can be hidden in software's or in other files or programs that you may download.
