Let’s have a detailed look at their mode of operation.</span></div><br /><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></h3><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">What is a Virus ?</span></h3><div style="color: #312f2f; margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieyhlvBlVOLmQ1gPUWsZvh12ImmEMsA5od2YSfNdPCsGum42iL0M7PPi6EwsE7oF7FgBqBHjAhLrjj1SXwboQpZGIXKcrZmyKM37as6kK8GOAoe579steDs83LKf1jrruXgbTQhOKBf20/s1600/virus_khazanakhoj.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieyhlvBlVOLmQ1gPUWsZvh12ImmEMsA5od2YSfNdPCsGum42iL0M7PPi6EwsE7oF7FgBqBHjAhLrjj1SXwboQpZGIXKcrZmyKM37as6kK8GOAoe579steDs83LKf1jrruXgbTQhOKBf20/s200/virus_khazanakhoj.png" width="200" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Just as a biological virus replicates itself in a human cell, a computer virus replicates itself  in computer memory when initiated by the user. Not only they replicate themselves but may also contain some malicious codes which can affect your files, your operating system or even your master boot records thereby making your computer start slow or not boot at all.</span></div><div style="color: #312f2f; margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There are different types of viruses, some affect the system adversely and leave it completely unusable while some are just written to annoy the user. Disabling task manager or desktop wallpaper is one of the most common ways that virus creators employ to irritate users.</span></div><div style="color: #312f2f; margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As a virus always needs a human action to initiate itself, in a computer most of them attach themselves to an executable .exe file because it knows eventually the user will double click on it to run it and that’s all it needs to infect the computer. Yes, unfortunately, most viruses are inadvertently initiated by the computer users themselves and hence it is important that when you install and run programs, you know beforehand that you got them from a trusted source.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"></div><h3><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">What is a Worm ?</span></h3><div><div style="color: #312f2f; margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDCW1vpgthnBKM8i7fgTdqfuVEW7mCdsYr3Gpa_mV4miPaD0L8hYH4maWzghmYlZdtbpRBO28wEbK_bM9ykgeqdQ0c-1imfyenLys1M9fCHzI3yYEM6ENhwF5al2pzbgPoMupesGrdNeY/s1600/worm_khazanakhoj.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDCW1vpgthnBKM8i7fgTdqfuVEW7mCdsYr3Gpa_mV4miPaD0L8hYH4maWzghmYlZdtbpRBO28wEbK_bM9ykgeqdQ0c-1imfyenLys1M9fCHzI3yYEM6ENhwF5al2pzbgPoMupesGrdNeY/s200/worm_khazanakhoj.png" width="171" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Practically a worm is an evolved form of a virus. Like virus, worms too replicate and spread themselves but it happens on a bit larger scale. Also, unlike virus, a worm does not need a human action to replicate and spread and that’s what makes it more dangerous.</span></div><div style="color: #312f2f; margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A worm always seeks for network loopholes to replicate from computer to computer and thus most common way of intrusion are emails and IM attachments.  As the infection is network-based, a good firewall along with antivirus is necessary to control worm attack. Also, this means that blindly downloading email attachments or clicking the links friends share with you in a chat window isn’t recommended. Double-check before you do that.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"></div><h3><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">What is a Trojan Horse ?</span></h3><div><div style="color: #312f2f; margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtbUYbcV8kqI5u87gYmXn7YTjc_0Fz06QRTiHDIVnnobeHBcaR_jEpdLs8L_S2BbBInQkkO6OUD-y464Lci8YlaVxKB-Oxp6DShGAOpsZ9N0k_HPwH9bxExd9YlhBIVpAdaSt24AfJUKs/s1600/trojan-horse1.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtbUYbcV8kqI5u87gYmXn7YTjc_0Fz06QRTiHDIVnnobeHBcaR_jEpdLs8L_S2BbBInQkkO6OUD-y464Lci8YlaVxKB-Oxp6DShGAOpsZ9N0k_HPwH9bxExd9YlhBIVpAdaSt24AfJUKs/s200/trojan-horse1.png" width="200" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Trojan horse or simply Trojan is a bit interesting. Trojan horse is a program that appears useful by pretending to do certain things in foreground, but in reality they are working silently in background with the only objective of harming your computer and/or stealing valuable information.</span></div><div style="color: #312f2f; margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Let me explain this metaphorically.</span></div><div style="color: #312f2f; margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Suppose you are the CEO of a company and there’s an employee in your firm you think is a valuable asset because of some initial success he gave your company. In reality the employee is working for your competitor and destroying your company from within. Now these kinds of employees can be considered as a Trojan horses if you consider the company as your computer.</span></div><div style="color: #312f2f; margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Most common way to invite a Trojan horse to your computer is downloading malicious software like keys, cracks, free illegal music, wares etc from an unknown source. Thus the best way to stay away from Trojans is by making sure you install software from trusted sources.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"></div><h3><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">What is a Spyware ?</span></h3><div><div style="color: #312f2f; margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9d61kkaMT1h13PI7YspaKvO-JWv_HKGWqFSi5mH7NklHTjTYwuU9KpitflWX83C-ZnLUeZrc_sygbXtdLn6neeATdKNzUV52v3QtJuG3wDt5kPVZhlBbTNGEn9rRWKYsKZPqtqaQrX-U/s1600/spyware_khazanakhoj.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9d61kkaMT1h13PI7YspaKvO-JWv_HKGWqFSi5mH7NklHTjTYwuU9KpitflWX83C-ZnLUeZrc_sygbXtdLn6neeATdKNzUV52v3QtJuG3wDt5kPVZhlBbTNGEn9rRWKYsKZPqtqaQrX-U/s200/spyware_khazanakhoj.png" width="170" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Spywares are also malicious computer programs that can be installed on computers but unlike any of the above they don’t harm your computer in any way. Instead, they attack you!</span></div><div style="color: #312f2f; margin-bottom: 1.571em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Once installed on a system they run in background and keep on collecting user’s personal data.

That doesn’t mean you should worry too much. We have talked about tools like virus scanners and spyware removers before so make sure you keep your computer protected with them.

They will bear how much ever you hit them but the condition is you must keep saying "you are too good" after hitting them every time.</span></div></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><br /></span></div></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Nithya:</span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;"> This is superb.

By the end of this post, I hope to have helped you decide whether that statement is true or not.<br /><br />There is no doubt that life has its ups and downs. However, how we deal with them can sometimes make all the difference. Today I want to share eight harsh truths that I've come to learn from life. There's also a message in each that I think we can all learn from, and when applied, will improve our lives infinitely.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /> </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Some of these lessons may be old-hat for you. If so, look for ways to refine the idea to ensure your getting the most out of it. On the other hand, you may completely disagree with an idea or two and that's great! Let us know your thoughts so we can all learn from each other.</span><br /><b style="color: #ff6600; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></b> <br /><h3><b style="color: #ff6600; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">1. Friends Come and Go</b></h3><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">When I was in high school, I always imagined spending most of my life with the same people. Then when I realized I had to move to college, that all changed. Once again, I made some close college friends but left them all behind when I moved from the UK to South Africa.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Friends will always come and go in your life; even though I'm back in the UK now, all my friends are in university around the country and not exactly in meeting distance. It can be a hard thing to accept, but many of the friends you spend time with now, might not be around in the next few years.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Important Lesson<b>:</b></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">There are an abundance of amazing people out there for you to meet and build relationships with. If you don't have many friends, don't stress, there are literally billions of friendship possibilities.</span><br /><h3><b style="color: #ff6600; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">2. You Won't Always Get What You Want</b></h3></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I remember one Christmas when the only thing I had asked for was some second hand turntables for DJ'ing. I didn't ask for anything else so I was pretty sure I would get them. However, they didn't come and I ended up having to save for 10 months on my own in order to purchase them.</span></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">You won't always get what you want in life: people are going to be late, people will let you down, items you want won't always be available.</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: justify; text-decoration: underline;">Important Lesson<b>:</b></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;"> Don't look for happiness in material possessions and if things don't go your way, learn to accept them. Life's too short to stay miserable.</span><br /><div><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><b style="color: #ff6600; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">3. Many People Will Love You, but Many Will Not</b></h3><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">Whether you are a celebrity, a charity worker or just a normal guy, there are going to be people that love you and what you do, but there's also going to be plenty people that don't like you. There are many possible reasons such as jealousy, similarities to them, or just not being someone's 'type'.</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: justify; text-decoration: underline;">Important Lesson<b>:</b></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;"> Not everyone is always going to like you, and that's fine. If people want to spend time talking about you then that is their problem. You are perfect as you are. You shouldn't need everyone to like you to have some form of self-esteem.</span><br /><ol style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> </span> </ol><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><b style="color: #ff6600; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">4. Nobody Can Transform Your Life Like You Can</b></h3><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">Wouldn't it be lovely if we didn't have to go up on stage, but we could just read a paragraph of a blog post and become a perfect public speaker? Or, wouldn't it be nice if our friends could do daring things, and we would benefit from them as well?</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">The support and help of others can only take you so far, you're going to have to do your own thing to make big changes in your life situation.</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: justify; text-decoration: underline;">Important Lesson<b>:</b></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;"> Do things for yourself and learn to stand on your own two feet. People you rely on won't be around forever, and you don't want to have to use others as a crutch to get anywhere in life.</span><br /><ol style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> </span> </ol><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><b style="color: #ff6600; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">5. You Are Going to Fail</b></h3><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">I built more than 7 websites before I created one that actually started making me any money. I even put hundreds of hours into my own company that I actually closed down last month. Whether it is exams, projects, companies, or even the odd pub quiz, there are times when you will fail to meet your goals.</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">As the saying goes - "Only those who are asleep make no mistakes".</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: justify; text-decoration: underline;">Important Lesson<b>:</b></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;"> You can learn a lot from others, but it is your own failures that are going to teach you the most valuable lessons in life. Learn from your failures, embrace them, and use them to drive you on to success.</span><br /><ol style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> </span> </ol><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><b style="color: #ff6600; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">6. Rain Will Sometimes Cancel Play</b></h3><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">On some occasions when you have your shorts on and you're ready for the beach, it's going to rain. Or, when you get to that first hole and you're ready to tee off - the clouds will open. Things aren't always going to go how you would like them to.</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: justify; text-decoration: underline;">Important Lesson<b>:</b></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: justify;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">Don't stress about the things that you can't control. Learn to live with things that happen. You can't change the past, but you can change how you react to things.</span><br /><ol style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> </span> </ol><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><b style="color: #ff6600; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">7. There May Be No Tomorrow</b></h3><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">At least, not for you anyway. We never know what is around the corner, a car crash, a heart attack; heck...even the end of the world is </span><i style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">possible</i><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">. Let's face it, although we would all like to live till we are 70 years old, that's certainly not always the case. There will be one day that is our last.</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: justify; text-decoration: underline;">Important Lesson<b>:</b></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: justify;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">Make the most of each day. Make sure the people you care about actually know it, don't worry about little matters, just make sure you spend time doing the things you love.</span><br /><ol style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> </span> </ol><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><b style="color: #ff6600; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">8. Someone Else Will Always Have More</b></h3><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">Whether it is money, partners, friends or even blog subscribers, there will always be areas where other people have more than you. That isn't to say you can't become abundant in whatever you want (i.e. someone always had more money than Warren Buffett until 2008 when he was noted to be the richest man in the world).</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">The wanting of more actually holds a very important lesson...</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: justify; text-decoration: underline;">Important Lesson<b>:</b></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: justify;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: justify;">Just because someone has 'more', that doesn't mean they are happy. Read the biography of any celebrity and they will tell you they enjoy their process of earning money, rather than what money can do to make them happy. In other words, focus on what you love, not what the thing you love can get you.</span><br /><ol style="text-align: justify;"></ol><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>BONUS</b>: Linking all the lessons here together is actually quite simple, and I can share the majority of what you need to know to enjoy life in a few simple bullet points:</span></div><ul style="text-align: justify;"><li><span style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Live life for the moment</span></li><span style="color: #bf9000;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> </span> </span><li><span style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Accept what is, even if things don't go your way</span></li><span style="color: #bf9000;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> </span> </span><li><span style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Happiness is here, right now if you stop resisting and start accepting </span></li></ul><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">I hope you all enjoyed my slightly unique take on the topic of improving your life. I would love to hear some </span><i style="font-weight: bold;">harsh </i><span style="font-weight: bold;">(but necessary) truths in the comments below!</span></span></span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-size: xx-small;">Courtesy of  <a href="http://www.dumblittleman.com/2009/02/8-harsh-truths-that-will-improve-your.html" target="_blank">DUMBLITTLEMAN</a></span></span></div></div></div>
