"A computer worm question"

Would you say that a computer worm acquires matter and energy from the external environment and converts it into different forms?

No Problem.

I think somebody needs to smoke less dope.

You have answered my question perfectly, and have confirmed what i thought.

Do you mean like this:

Programmer(Kinetic) ---> Computer(Electric) --->Internet(Potential/Kinetic/Electric) ---> Computer(Electric) --->User(Kinetic)

Your question was hard to understand, and i think i may have got the wrong end of the stick.

Or do you mean:
Worm(Electric - Formed by Kinetic energy) ---> Computer Infected(Uses up Electric energy) --->User(Kinetic/Potential)

The worm transfers from:
Kinetic - The programmer, to;
Electric - Powered by computer, to;
Computer Infected - Powered by computer, to;
User - Uses Kinetic energy to get rid of worm?

But that would be standard for most things.

Yes.
No.

Maybe.


I don't know :O(

Can you repeat the question?
