4. Your friend just told you that he is developing a worm to attack the administrative systems at your college. The worm is "harmless" and will simply cause a message - "Let's party!" - to be dispalyed on all workstations on Friday afternoon at 3 p.m. By 4 p. m., the virus will erase itself and destroy all evidence of its presence. What would you say or do?


Ans.
Well,my suggestion about the situation of this,my friend he told me that he is developing a worm to attack the administrative system at your college,and worm is harmless. so it means any body do not touch or enter the harmless worm.because the virus will erase or destroy all evidence of the presence if we can touch or enter the the harmless worm.
