B)Z1 was the first fully operational digital computer developed by Konrad Zuse in 1936. 

In 1939, he created the Z2 as the first electro-mechanical computer in the world. While Charles Babbage is being considered as the “father of the computer”, Zuse can be considered as the inventor of the “modern computer”.





C) The first disk drive to use removable media was the IBM 1311. You may not believe, but as you can see in the image below, it resembles the look of a washing machine. It was quite big, yet it had a storage capacity of fewer than 5 megabytes.

I)  According to various statistical analysis, it is a fact that more than 80% emails sent are spam!




J) ILOVEYOU is considered to be the most dangerous virus ever created in the form of a worm. It has the ability to replicate itself and crash the system. It arrived through e-mail messages as a love letter from a secret admirer. When a user opens the email and clicks on the attachment available, the virus starts its magic. ILOVEYOU, being potentially the most dangerous virus, did not do much damage as compared to the one which was the fastest spread virus program.

N) The first word to be transmitted over the Internet (When ARPANET existed) was "lo". It was meant to denote -" login" but the system crashed before transmitting the complete message.
