cluster virus
Last modified: Thursday, May 17, 2007
A type of computer virus that associates itself
with the execution of programs by modifying directory table entries to ensure
the virus itself will start when any program on the computer system is started.
If infected with a cluster virus it will appear as if every program on the
computer system is infected; however, a
cluster virus is only in one place on the system.
