Viruses in computers - how are they created?

Can anyone tell me how a virus that gets into a computer is actually created? What I mean is are they always the product of human attempts to create malicious progams etc? Can a virus start as a valid program and then become corrupted on it's own?



Thank you!

depending on the virus, trojan, etc. it all depends.



some viruses are artifically created for a purpose, to seek information, or to destroy.



it just all depends on the progams being used.

I think most often they are created by hackers, or programmers who go out of their way to create programs that attack private systems. A valid program that ceases to work properly usually does just that... quits working.
Vipguy, I wish I knew and then I would not have to paid thru the nose for a virus protection program
