Computer viruses ... are best defined by four essential characteristics: ... 3. Side-effects: Viruses do not normally consist only of self-replicating code; they also contain a "payload". This is comparable to a missile carrying a warhead; the self-replicating code is analogous to the missile and the side-effects to the warhead. It is easy to program the payload side-effects to be malicious. 1, record 6, English, - payload

Les virus informatiques [...] peuvent être définis par quatre critères essentiels: [...] 3. Les effets secondaires: en général, les virus ne sont pas uniquement constitués d'une codification autoreproductrice; ils contiennent également une «charge». On pourrait faire une analogie avec un missile transportant une charge explosive; la codification autoreproductrice est analogue au missile et les effets secondaires à la charge explosive. On peut facilement programmer les effets secondaires de la charge pour qu'ils soient malveillants. 1, record 6, French, - charge

On peut alléger considérablement le code d'un virus en évitant d'y inscrire la tâche de manipulation.
