Ah, the age-old question: Is the malware the exploit, or is the exploit the malware? Either way, I'm just glad I don't have to deal with this stuff in my daily life.

Wait, so malware and exploits aren't just tech terms for 'things that annoy me'? Dang, I've been using them wrong this whole time.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I think I'll just pray to the tech gods and click randomly. As long as I don't choose 'all of the above,' I should be good.

I don't know, this seems a bit too technical. I'll just guess and hope for the best. C sounds plausible, let's go with that.

I'm pretty sure B is also correct. .exe files are a common vector for exploits, right? This test is trying to trick us.

A and D are the correct answers. Exploits take advantage of vulnerabilities, and malware can be executable files that don't rely on exploits. Easy question!

I agree with you, Lavina. I also think D is true because malware can be standalone.
