What is the name of the viruses that fool a user into downloading and/or executing them by pretending to be useful applications?

  • A.Worm
  • B.Cracker
  • C.Keylogger
  • D.Trojan horses

Answer: D

Correct answer: Trojan horses

A trojan is defined by its disguise: it presents itself as something useful so the user runs it willingly. A worm needs no such trick, since it propagates by itself, and a keylogger describes a payload rather than a method of getting in.
