An intentionally disruptive software that spreads from computer to computer is known as

  • A.search engine
  • B.chat software
  • C.e-mail
  • D.virus

Answer: D

Such software is known as a virus.

A computer virus is malicious code written deliberately to disrupt or damage computers. It attaches itself to a program or file and, when that is run or shared, copies itself to other files and computers, spreading from machine to machine and corrupting data or slowing systems.

A search engine finds information on the web, chat software lets users exchange messages, and e-mail is a way of sending messages. None of them is disruptive software, although e-mail attachments are a common way for viruses to spread.
