What is a Computer WORM
A computer worm is a self-replicating computer program, similar to a computer virus but there is a difference. A virus attaches itself to, and becomes part of, another executable program; however, a worm is self-contained and does not need to be part of another program to propagate itself. They are often designed to exploit the file transmission capabilities found on many computers.
