Viruses, like bacteria are found almost everywhere; in the soil, in the air, on surfaces or in animals and plants. They are looking for a host organism to infect so that they can use the machinery in the cell to multiply and create more viruses.

Do you mean like the Trojan Horse computer virus? If so, then basically by accessing certain files from the internet. These can be accessed usually by downloading Limewire, or various patches, folders, etc. from other internet users. To stay safe from Trojan Horse viruses I suggest you download or purchase anti-virus software that automatically informs you of viruses such as the Trojan Horse and gives you the option to get rid of them. But, I strongly suggest sticking with trusted sites for downloading music. An example would be Beemp3.com. Hope I helped!

Wherever you find life you will find viruses infecting bacteria at the bottom of the ocean to trees on mountain tops. Anything alive can be infected by one virus or another. That is if you not asking about Computer Viruses.

From someone who already has a virus that passes it on to you by sneezing coughing, or any of that stuff if you're in a cold. But if it's not, then answers may vary.
