Internet piracy involves the downloading and distribution of copyrighted media without paying for it. When people download or copy content such as music, books, games and other digital media, they may be infringing on copyright laws.
Phishing is a bank fraud to get banking information such as passwords of Internet bank accounts or credit card details. Criminals often use websites that have a look and feel of some popular websites, which make the users feel secure. Scam is email fraud to obtain money or valuables.

Malicious program is a general term for any computer program that is designed to harm its victim(s). Malware (malicious software) is software created to damage or alter the computer data or its operations. These are the main types of malware:



  • Viruses are programs that spread by attaching themselves to executable files or documents. When the infected program is run, the virus propagates to other files or programs on the computer. Some viruses are designed to work at a particular time or on a specific date, e.g. on Friday 13th. An email virus spreads by sending a copy of itself to everyone in an email address book. The word "virus" is also used broadly to include computer viruses, worms, and Trojan Horse programs.

  • Worms are self-copying programs that have the capacity to move from one computer to another without human help, by exploiting security flaws in computer networks. Worms are self-contained and don't need to be attached to a document or program the way viruses do.

People often confuse viruses and worms. Some confusion about the distinction between a virus and a worm is caused by two distinctly different criteria:


1. a virus infects an executable file, while a worm is a stand-alone program.
2. a virus requires human action to propagate (e.g., running an infected program, booting from a disk that has infected boot sectors) even if the human action is inadvertent, while a worm propagates automatically.
