As a blog assignment my teacher had me look up how to make a great interesting Power Point. I found that some of the suggestions to make your Power Point creative is to avoid writing too many words on each slides don't have more than six words. Avoid using bullets, use a slide for every sentence. To make a great Power Point make sure your font is big and bold. A little words go a long way when it comes to Power Points. Put pictures in the presentation that are not dull. This is all information that I found on making a great Power Point look here to find this information.

Computer Viruses

1. a) Worm = A worm is a type of computer bug that travels through other computers, that have some sort of breakdown in their software, by reproducing itself it can easily transfer from one susceptible  computer to another.
   b)Trojan = Trojan horse is another computer bug that pops up on your screen telling you to click on it or access it in some way, when you access it Trojan quickly takes hold of whatever it can in your computer, usually resulting in loss of files or other important information.
   c) Spyware =Spyware is a program that takes over a persons computer without them knowing and collects their information and sends it to wherever the program pleases.
   d)Rogue Security Software = It's a computer bug that basically convinces people to spend money to remove another bug, but instead of removing anything it adds more problems and gets away with stealing.
2. One way of getting a virus is when you are down loading movies or music, the virus is most likely in that program and once downloaded it  appears on your computer.
3. One can tell if they have a virus if their computer is slow and programs pop up without you clicking on them.
4. To avoid getting a virus you must take precautions, when searching the internet be careful, don't click on pop ups.
5. An email virus is a bug that is usually sent in an attachment that is linked to harmful sites. It is dangerous because it could be asking you to give out personal information.
6. Lots of viruses are made to make money and they may be made by people that want to hurt some one.
7. Three programs that protect us are, Trend Micro, Titanium, and Maximum Security.

I made this collage on a photo program called Ribbet. The picture in the left corner I edited in Ribbet, the rest of the photos I uploaded from my jump drive.

The first picture is a before picture of the second picture. I used a photo shop program called Ribbet, to edit the second photo. I cropped the photo then added a border and then vintage colour scheme.
