TSR (Terminate Stay Resident) programs and virus
These
programs start when you first turn on your computer and stay in
memory, ready for your use, even if they are not active on your
screen. These programs can take system resources. These stay
resident programs may include screen savers, anti-virus protection,
and any DOS or Windows programs that were opened but never shut off.
Terminate and Stay Resident. "Memory Resident" viruses go into
memory and stay there while the computer is still running. TSR
viruses usually design a method by which they are put into memory
when the computer is booted, and then run until the computer is shut
down.
