The Trojan Horse in computing is the name for a virus that infects files in your PC. This is caused by hackers using specified programs in advanced computing, to be able to create a file that a person would like to download that looks very similar to the real thing that the official company would sell you. They tell you its a free download and say that its an approved download directly from the company, but when that file is download, the virus is in the download without you knowing, not even your malware/spyware can detect it, and was given the name Trojan Horse, similar to what happened in the Trojan War.

“I thought the software would be useful, but it was a Trojan Horse.” This refers to the horse that the Greeks built that contained all the soldiers. It was given as a gift to the enemy during the Trojan War and, once inside the enemy's walls, the soldiers broke out. By using trickery, the Greeks won the war.

The boy's Achilles Heel is math. He struggles and is his biggest weakness. He doesn't like doing it and that just makes things worse because its bringing him down, telling himself that he cant do it.
