Malware == Any harmful software.
Virus == A type of harmful software that copies itself.

Virus==Replicating Entity

In the case of Humans, it is a germ that replicates and spreads to survive.
In the case of Computers, it is....A germ that replicates and spreads to wreak havoc, and slow down the world's research.
