WORMS: INFECTION MULTIPLIES

A computer worm is a standalone malware computer program that replicates itself in order to spread to other computers. 

TROJANS: INFECTION IS STEALTHED

A Trojan horse or Trojan is a non-self-replicating type of malware program containing malicious code.

• ILOVEYOU, sometimes referred to as Love Letter, was a computer worm that attacked tens of millions of Windows personal computers on and after 5 May 2000 local time in the Philippines when it started spreading as an email message with the subject line "ILOVEYOU" and the attachment "LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.txt.vbs".

• On 5 May, 2000, two young Filipino computer programmers named Reonel Ramones and Onel de Guzman became targets of a criminal investigation by agents of the Philippines' National Bureau of Investigation (NBI). They were the creators of the virus that infected over 50 M computers in 10 days, that the Pentagon and British Parliament shut down their e-mail servers.
