Why are some computer viruses called trojan horse

Trojan malware takes its name from the classical story of the Trojan horse, because it imitates the technique to infect computers. A Trojan will hide within seemingly harmless programs, or will try to trick you into installing it. Unlike viruses, Trojans do not self-replicate by infecting other files or computers

NOT MY CONTEXT!!

The original Trojian Horse was created in ancient Greece during the Trojian War. The army created a wooden horse that was sent as a gift to Troy. But the horse was full of soldiers ready to fight once they entered Troy's gates.

A Trojian horse virus works in a similar manner. It is a virus disguised as some thing you want (i.e. a video game), but when you download it to your computer the virus is realeased and does what is was coded to do.

what do you mean

c. the king has significantly abused the colonists' rights many times over a long period of time.
