			The Character can also use this check to attempt to understand what a program is doing. If the player has access to its Source Code. (The actual code of the program. Just having a program does not mean that you have the code. A computer program is written in a language and that language is just a set of rules that translates into ones and zeros. In order to get code that is written in a human readable/understandable format the player can attempt to reverse engineer the program, which is a [[Computer Use\|Computer Use]] skill check. Or attempt to find the source code somewhere on the internet). Once a Character has the code of the virus/program the Character can use the Decipher Script skill check to attempt to understand how it works.
