Details of the most recent outbreaks of computer viruses‚ such as the "Melissa"‚ "I Love You" and the most recent "Anna Kournikova" viruses will be explained‚ and why they are so harmful. I will also give you my recommendations on how to combat this threat of computer viruses‚ what Anti-virus Applications

The Ebola Virus A virus is an ultramicroscopic infectious organism that‚ having no independent metabolic activity‚ can replicate only within a cell of another host organism. A virus consists of a core of nucleic acid‚ either RNA or DNA‚ surrounded by a coating of antigenic protein and sometimes a lipid layer surrounds it as well. The virus provides the genetic code for replication‚ and the host cell provides the necessary energy and raw materials. There are more than 200 viruses that

Virus and Bacteria Virus - A virus is a capsule of protein that contains genetic material. A virus cannot reproduce on its own; it must infect a living cell to grow. Bacteria - Bacteria are one-celled organisms that live on their own. They can multiply and reproduce by subdivision Bacteria and viruses cause many of the diseases we are familiar with and may sound synonymous; they are greatly different from each other.

Ebola By: Fahd Seddiki and Conrad Womelsdorf Discovery of Ebola The discovery of Ebola was made after an epidemic of this virus was spread throughout Sub-Sahara Africa. The actual discovery was made by a native by the name of DR. Ngoy Mushola. He discovered it in 1976 after the epidemic hit his country. The first case of Ebola was called Ebola Zaire. It was discovered in Zaire hence the name. The second discovery of Ebola was called Ebola Sudan; also it was discovered in Sudan. Although

The Ebola virus‚ also know as Ebola hemorrhagic fever is a disease caused by viruses from four different families of viruses: 1)filoviruses‚ 2)arenavirus‚ 3)flavavirus‚ 4)bunyaviruses. The usual host for most of these viruses are rodents or anthropoids (such as ticks and mosquitoes). In some cases‚ such as the Ebola virus‚ the natural host for the virus is unknown. All forms of viral hemorrhagic fever begin with a fever and muscle aches. Depending on the particular virus‚ the disease
