Introduction


What is antivirus software?

Antivirus (or anti-virus) software is used to safeguard a computer from malware,
including viruses, computer worms, and Trojan horses. Antivirus software may also
remove or prevent spyware and adware, along with other forms of malicious
programs. Free antivirus software generally only searches your computer using
signature-based detection which involves looking for patterns of data that are
known to be related to already-identified malware. Paid antivirus software will
usually also include heuristics to catch new, or zero-day threats, by either using
genetic signatures to identify new variants of existing virus code or by running the
file in a virtual environment (also called a sandbox), and watching what it does to
see if it has malicious intent.
Virus designers, however, usually test their malicious code against the major
antivirus types of malware, specifically ransom ware, and use polymorphic code to
make it difficult to be detected by antivirus software. Besides using antivirus
software to keep your computer safe and running smoothly, it is also always a
good idea to be proactive: make sure your web browser is updated to the latest
version, use a firewall, only download programs from websites you trust and
always surf the web using a standard user account, rather than your administrator
one.
