The best description of a computer virus is. Someone first starts out making a malicious program, then can send it to a unexpected user. After that, when the user opens the malicious program, it can do negative things on the target. The virus first starts out in the system32, then infects a random file type for example, exe files, or dlls etc. Then random errors can pop up on the computer saying "YOUR COMPUTER IS UNDER RISK! CALL THIS NUMBER NOW! 555-555-5555" and the options of the error, can direct you to a website, that can give you another virus. To get rid of a virus, you have to ignore the popups that comes onto your computer, and get a strong antivirus like avast, or avg. Then let it scan the system. After when the scan is done, it will show up the virus, and it will give you options "to delete virus or ignore it" you would hit delete. I hope this answer helped you. Let me know if you have any more questions! Thanks!

Answer:

We can periodically take a snapshot of the Domain Name System (DNS) caches in the local  Domain Name System (DNS) servers.

Explanation:

We can periodically take a snapshot of the Domain Name System (DNS) caches in the local  Domain Name System (DNS) servers. The Web server that appears most frequently in the  Domain Name System (DNS) caches is the most popular server. This is because if more users are interested in a Web server, then Domain Name System (DNS) requests for that server are more frequently sent by users. Thus, that Web server will appear in the  Domain Name System (DNS) caches more frequently.

The cost to ship a package is a flat fee of 75 cents plus 25 cents per pound.
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The following alterations are done to the program

1. Replace <em>/* Your solution goes here */ </em>with

<em>const int CENTS_PER_POUND = 25;</em>

<em>cout<<"Ship Weight Pounds: "; </em>

<em>cin>>shipWeightPounds; </em>

<em />

2. Include

<em>shipCostCents = FLAT_FEE_CENTS + CENTS_PER_POUND * shipWeightPounds;</em>

after

<em>cout << ", Cents per lb: " << CENTS_PER_POUND;</em>

Explanation:

<em>See attachment for complete program as it should be ordered</em>

<em></em>

This line declares CENTS_PER_POUND as a constant integer and it also initializes the variable to 25

<em>const int CENTS_PER_POUND = 25;</em>

This prompts the user for the weight of the shipping items (in pounds)

<em>cout<<"Ship Weight Pounds: "; </em>

<em />

This gets user input for  the weight of the shipping item

<em>cin>>shipWeightPounds; </em>

<em />

<em>.............................</em>

<em>........</em>

<em>...</em>

This calculates the cost of shipping the item

<em>shipCostCents = FLAT_FEE_CENTS + CENTS_PER_POUND * shipWeightPounds;</em>
