Wikipedia Trails: From the Odyssey to Email Attachment

Odyssey

I started my search with what my readings and story was about. I found the Odyssey really interesting. I never knew that it was written at the end of the 8th century BC. That is such a long time ago and we are still reading it today! 

Trojan Horse 

I think that the entire idea of the Trojan Horse is fascinating. This is how the Greeks ended the Trojan War. I love the idea of how something from so long ago still has its effect today. There are stories today that use the same idea of the Trojan Horse. It definitely left an impression. 

A Replica of the Trojan Horse

Malware

Malware is sort of like a technological Trojan Horse. It intentionally damages a computer. Malware is very malicious and damaging. Antivirus software is used to protect computers against Malware. 

Email Attachment

I was finally left at Email Attachment. This is a computer file that is attached to an email. I use this a lot when sending Pictures or Word documents. The common indicator that there is an email attachment is when there is a paperclip icon.
