Hi,<br>
<br>
I don't like Question 15, as all of the answers, not just C, refer to "infected files". From Wikipedia:<br>
<br>
"A computer worm is a self-replicating malware computer program, which uses a computer network to send copies of itself to other nodes (computers on the network) and it may do so without any user intervention."<br>
<br>
I think it is D, as there should be other ways for a worm to spread other than email (and that requires a user). I am doubtful that Question 20 is B, as that would require the user to have knowledge of where the country is.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Julian<br>

Great as always Mark,<br>
<br>
I still have my money on scrollable list for question 20, because you don’t need to know where the country is located (which I guess would be one of the facts). Given the question info mentions 200 countries may indicate they want you to think a scrollable list will be too long. However, my iPod song list suggests 200 is catered for easily in a list. We will have to wait and see.<br>
<br>
I’m still thinking about what the main purposes of including the different languages in the question is. Is it just to help you decide not to do C or D or is there more to it? Would you have a different answer if they left this info out?<br>

A few interesting questions.<br>
<br>
I'm starting on Section B - and looking forward to that ridiculous B5 question with the big clown nose. It's monumentally absurd!<br>
