B Correct answer
Explanation

A retrovirus is a type of malware that specifically targets antivirus programs, security software, or system defense mechanisms to disable them and avoid detection. A worm is self-replicating malware that spreads across networks. A trojan disguises itself as legitimate software. 'Ghost virus' is not a standard malware classification term.
