Viruses can be categorised in more ways than one. For example, they can be categorised by their primary function and propagation method as follows:

Trojan Horse Enters a system disguised as something else

Bomb Doesn't propagate by itself at all, is placed by a human or another program and activated by a trigger such as time or event. Usually does something unpleasant when it goes off.

Port Scanner Hides on a system and scans the surrounding environment for IP addresses and open ports that it then makes available to other malicious codes or individuals.

Plot Captain Ahab and his obsessive hunt for the great white sperm whale that maimed him. A near-encyclopaedic reference on whales, whaling in 19th century.

Why Madness, obsession and allegorical contemplations on man and God.

Read If you like novels of the sea and deep, if direction-free philosophising.

Avoid If you have weak wrists. Easier to support Greenpeace.

This one’s not about the millions of little ones who don’t go to school, but the countless others who, despite the odds, manage to get there.

Little Haider from 24 Parganas, West Bengal, is wheeled to school every day by friends, while some Gujarati children study in a khadi tent in the middle of the 12,000-sq km desert. The book royalties support a giant travelling puppet show whose first destination is a Bihar district where few go to school. Going to...has also been developed into 10 mini-books , to be given free to government schools, ngo projects. On the anvil, a series of mini-films too. For more info: www.goingtoschool.com
