What characteristic of the IRC protocol makes it an effective way to spread viruses and worms quickly? a. It does not require users to log on, thus allowing open entry to the server via users’ connections. b. It broadcasts communication from one chat room participant to others.

c. It maintains a registry of all potential users and issues keep-alive transmissions to those users periodically.

d. It relies on multiple servers to provide the IRC service, thus enabling many hosts to become infected at once.
