How do hackers get trojans on people's computers?
assistant
A trojan is a malware program that comes in a seemingly-legitimate package, such as a game or video or movie. The program itself is destructive in that it can be used to take over the user's computer. So when a hacker is trying to get a trojan onto your computer, they might trick you into downloading it, or they might steal your information and send you an email with the trojan in the attachment. And once the trojan is on your computer, it has all the same rights and privileges you have as a user, and the hacker can use it to spy on you or steal your information or steal your money, or basically do anything they can think of.
