I think it is impossible to get a virus from a song. The things to check are any kind of software, pictures and in particular key generators and crack programmes. I once had a key generator that carried 15 different viruses. My Anti Virus went mad and cleared the lot!

ive gotten all types of trojans and virii off klite, thats why i stopped, even went and acted like a total fuck and tried dling a antivirus off klite, big prob, lol

I got my AV program off of Kazaa. It works great. I also got it before all the viruses started showing up on Kazaa, so that might be why it works. Get a good AV and you don't have to worry much. I havn't gotten a virus since I installed Norton.

The virus' on Kazaa aren't much cop, never had one get through Norton.

Awhile back, I downloaded a .rar file that contained a virus...(supposed to be a key generator or CD crack). I'm a bit smarter now. I use AVG to scan my received files before opening any. Caught several, probably because I mostly dl programs.

Actually MP3 files can contain virii. A while back, there was a bug in (guess) WMP which allowed arbitrary code execution when playing an infected MP3.
