Scareware

It's no secret that some programs have been out for a while and telling you that's something wrong with your computer. When in reality there is nothing wrong. The full blame goes back to the software manufacture.
I try to stay away from companies like this because in the long run you can never trust their integrity. I believe that if there software is good, then it should sell itself and you don't need to give the user false alarms that your computer is infected. You decide?

Different Types of Virus

There are various types of computer infections in the world that  when you get infected most technician's usually would tell you that you have a virus instead of something else.
In the computer world these are the types of computer infections you can get such as a Malware, a virus, a worm, a trogan, spyware, adware, keylogger, a bot, a botnet, a rootkit and ramsonware.
There all bad news for technicians when they appear on your computer. They not only take control of of how your computer performs but what it does on a regular basis.
Now If I was going to explain to a customer that they had a Rootkit, it could take hours or days to explain to them what a Rootkit does. Not all users are tech savvy to understand computers.

In the end your computer gets infected the similar way and is inaccessible.
For those user's who really want to know the various types of virus infections in the computer world. Here is the list with a brief explanation on what it does.
