時(shí)差N小時(shí):數(shù)字感染 Computer virus

Computers are great tools, but they can also bemystifying.

計(jì)算機(jī)是偉大的工具,但有時(shí)這個(gè)人類(lèi)的好幫手也叫人無(wú)可奈何。

Sometimes a program will just stop working correctlyfor no apparent reason.

有時(shí)一個(gè)程序沒(méi)有任何明顯原因就會(huì)停止正常工作。

It could just be a random glitch that can be solvedby restarting the machine.

這可能只是一個(gè)隨機(jī)故障,可以通過(guò)“重啟”秘籍解決。

But sometimes the solution is not so simple,

但有時(shí)并解決方法非如此簡(jiǎn)單明了,

especially if at the root of the problem lurks a computer virus.

特別是如果問(wèn)題的根源是計(jì)算機(jī)病毒在背后搗鬼。

A computer virus is a bit of programming code that gets passed from machine to machine bye-mail or the sharing of programs.

計(jì)算機(jī)病毒是一種通過(guò)電子郵件或分享程序在機(jī)器之間傳遞的編程代碼。Like a biological virus, on its own acomputer virus can't do anything.

就像生物病毒一樣,在自己的電腦病毒并無(wú)用武之地。

But once it gets attached to something else, say a document or image attached to an e-mailmessage, it can wreak havoc.

但一旦它附加到別的東西,比如一個(gè)文檔或圖片附加進(jìn)電子郵件消息,就可以造成嚴(yán)重破壞。

Once you open the infected object, two things can happen.

一旦你打開(kāi)感染對(duì)象, 會(huì)發(fā)生兩件事情。

The virus will reproduce itself to infect other documents and may damage the overallfunctioning of your computer.

這種病毒會(huì)復(fù)制自己感染其他文件,可能會(huì)損害您的計(jì)算機(jī)的整體功能。

Depending on the type of virus, it can simply clog up memory or, even worse, erase data.

根據(jù)不同類(lèi)型的病毒,它可以簡(jiǎn)單地堵塞內(nèi)存,或者更糟糕的清楚數(shù)據(jù)。

If your computer is connected to the internet, viruses called worms may infect your machine,then use its connection to seek out and infect other computers.

如果您的計(jì)算機(jī)連接到因特網(wǎng),一種蠕蟲(chóng)病毒會(huì)感染你的機(jī)器,然后利用它的連接去尋找和感染其他電腦。

Unlike natural viruses, computer viruses are created by people and unleashed with the intent ofdoing mischief or harm.

與天然病毒不同的是,計(jì)算機(jī)病毒是由人類(lèi)創(chuàng)造并以惡作劇或傷害為意圖發(fā)布。

If you find that your computer has been infected, run a virus detection program to find thevirus and destroy it.

如果你發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的愛(ài)機(jī)已經(jīng)被感染了,運(yùn)行一個(gè)病毒檢測(cè)程序來(lái)找到病毒并摧毀它。

The best way to protect your computer is to install virus protection software that's alwaysalert and looking out for harmful intruders.

保護(hù)你的計(jì)算機(jī)最好的方式就是安裝防病毒軟件,以便總是警鐘長(zhǎng)鳴并且尋找有害的入侵者。

Plus, never download a program from iffy Websites or open unsolicited e-mail attachments.

另外,從不在可疑的網(wǎng)站或開(kāi)放的不請(qǐng)自來(lái)的電子郵件附件中下載一個(gè)程序。

They may be harmless, but you never know when a virus might be attached and ready topounce.

它們可能是無(wú)害的,但是你永遠(yuǎn)不知道何時(shí)病毒會(huì)找上身并且隨時(shí)準(zhǔn)備抓住機(jī)會(huì)。
