    Virus?

    that can copy itself and infect a computer
    without the permission or knowledge of
    the owner.
    One of the first detected virus was the
    Creeper virus in the early 70s
    Before computer networks became
    widespread, most viruses spread on
    removable media, particularly floppy disk.
