Hi, I'm Grant. With more computer news you can use.

00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,000
What is a computer virus?

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:14,000
My mom said our computer got a virus and now it needs to be repaired. How could that happen?

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:19,000
When a virus enters your body, it can spread through the human body's systems and make you feel sick.

5
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:24,000
A virus in a computer also spreads through its systems and makes it act differently, like it is sick.

6
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:29,000
Sometimes a virus is hidden inside a good program. It enters your computer when you start the program.

7
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,000
I heard that computers can get a virus through email.

8
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:38,000
Only if you open an infected attachment on the email message. Be careful any time you download files.

9
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,000
Can I protect my computer from getting a virus?

10
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:47,000
Yes. Special antivirus programs can find and remove viruses from files before they enter your computer.

11
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,000
I'm glad I know I protect my computer now.
