“FILE INFECTOR VIRUSES are those that infect other files or programs on your system. They operate in a number of ways. Once the original ‘host’ program is run, the virus can stay resident or ‘live’ inside your systems memory (RAM) and infect programs as they are opened, or they can lay dormant inside another program. Each time that program is run, the virus will infect another program or file.”
