Malware, a portmanteau from the words malicious and software, is a kind of software designed to infiltrate or damage a computer system without the system owner's informed consent. The expression is a general term used by computer professionals to mean a variety of forms of hostile, intrusive, or annoying software or program code. The term "computer virus" is sometimes used as a catch-all phrase to include all types of malware, including true viruses. (Courtesy: Wikipedia.org)
