Correct answers: A, B
Explanation
Computer viruses often consume system resources, leading to slower overall performance. This includes slower processing speeds, longer boot times, and delayed response to user inputs.
Virus infections can trigger pop-up messages that may contain warnings, threats, or offers that are not typical of the user's normal experience. These pop-ups can be used for various malicious purposes, including phishing.
