Solve : Invulnerable virus protection.?

Answer»

I got a wii for christmas. I hooked up my wireless to it =]. I downloaded the internet channel off of the wii channel.


I am typing from my wii right now and its TAKING a very long time, but anyway, I am COMPLETELY invulnerable to ANY viruses/trojans/worms, EVERYTHING. Because it is not a standard OS.


Am I correct? Or is this just a myth?Oh, right now, for a limited time, you can live in your virus free world. But somoene somewhere, is looking at the firmware and codeing, and there will be a virus.

I'd say you have a while before that happens...Myth.

I don't know what Wii can do but if you can run some kind of executable PROGRAM you can get from the Internet, or anything from the Internet can access the Wii's harddrive, a virus is possible.Well, first, I can't download anything from the wii, and it won't run any UNSIGNED scripts or something....I still think of it as invunerable. =]For now. But where there's a will, there's a way. Someone will FIND a way. But for now, yeah, you're fine. Just don't let it get to your head. Remember the cell-phone viruses? That used to be impossible as well. Quote

Did you mean, "where there's a wii, there's a way." ?

 
Haha. yeah, but I guess i'll live it up with the Wii while it's still invunerable...  


viruses, though annoying and a nuisance, are EXTREMELY powerful when it comes to infecting a system.

You could download a file, and without even executing it, just the copying and pasting of it will execute itself.
