- It is my understanding that malware is the misuse of cache.
No. That's one possible use of malware.

What is malware:

said by Notepad thoughts :

Maybe then. If a ghost can be used to ID Cache and flush it when Your infected. This would fix all pc problems software related.
If I take your meaning (and I'm not sure that I do), if you could flush the memory or the cache, the malware would reappear then next time it ran (because of a reboot, or the next time you executed notepad in your example).

- Don't spam my thread.
The mods around here do a pretty good job of keeping things on an even keel. Doesn't mean things don't get heated (what's a lively discussion among friends without some passion?)

Hope this was on target.

- The cache example was to point out the changed cd copy.

I don't know the exact technical specification terminology that would be affected. I do know the hard drive version would be different from the cd copy. I called this change "cache".

- I understand the malware would restart on reboot. But not if the hard drive copy was formatted to a exact copy of the cd version. To do this would require a flushing of the changes the hard drive copy went through.
I don't know of the possible flushing techniques that could be used, or the best one.

Thanks for the kind reply.

For example.

A antivirus goes through it's list and looks through a hard drive. When it see's malware it quarantines it and "Flushes" it. Much like a cookie is flushed. Or history.

The thing I was saying was. Instead of using a antivirus for example. Just get the notepad program to id what can be flushed and do it without the use of the antivirus.
What can fall off the table.

To do this. The program, like notepad. Would need a table that can get things to fall off it, get flushed.

How to do this though. It's like a nat and os are joined.
