Many times, people have already used various security software and antivirus software to detect that their computers are infected with viruses such as Backdoor.RmtBomb.12 or Trojan.Win32.SendIP.15 —— these virus names consist of a series of English letters and numbers. At this point, some people might get confused: with such long names, how can I know what kind of virus it is? In fact, as long as we understand some of the naming conventions for viruses, we can use the virus names that appear in the antivirus software report to determine some common characteristics of the virus.
