Blaster (computer worm)

Okay, so you know how when you're sick, sometimes you sneeze or cough really hard? It's because your body is trying to get rid of the bad stuff and make you feel better.

Well, a blaster worm is kind of like that, but for computers. It's a bad thing that gets inside a computer and tries to make it sick.

The blaster worm was made by some mean people who wanted to do bad things to lots of computers. When it gets inside your computer, it tries to send a bunch of messages to other computers, kind of like a bunch of sneezes or coughs.

This can be really bad, because it can make other computers sick too. They might stop working or start acting weird. It's not nice to do this kind of thing, just like it's not nice to sneeze on someone or cough in their face.

That's why it's important to have good protection on your computer, like antivirus software, to keep the blaster worm and other bad things out.
