What is a difference between bacteria and viruses that shows that bacteria are living organims and viruses are not?

Bacteria metabolize ingested nutrients. Viruses do not do this. Bacteria reproduce by fusion. A virus needs a host to reproduce. Bacteria exchange gases with the environment. A virus does do this. A bacteria is motile in many cases. Flagella. Viruses must depend on the current in solution. As you see viruses do not have any of the markers of living organisms, but some biologists do not fully agree that viruses are not a sort of living organism.

Is Swine Flu aerobic?

It is not classified that same way as bacteria are. Bacteria are classified as aerobic or anaerobic to indicate if they are aerobic (require oxygen to function) or anaerobic (live in an oxygen-free environment). But bacteria are living organisms very different from viruses (swine flu is caused by a virus). Viruses are not "alive", they live off a host animal or plant (and even on bacteria) and cause the living organisms to metabolize and provide for them. Viruses don't really care if there is or is not an oxygen rich atmosphere as long as the environment is good for their host (in most cases, this is an aerobic environment.)

What are 3 of the nastiest bacterial viruses?

First we need to clarify your question. Viruses (like the one that causes the common cold) are NOT bacteria. Viruses are their own subset, in fact they aren't even considered 'living' organisms. Viruses that attack bacteria are called bacteriophage, if that is what you're interested, I suggest a search using that term. When it comes to viruses that attack humans, the nastiest are probably some of the STDs, like herpes, that are recurrent and you can never be cured of. An obvious answer is HIV-AIDS, an incurable illness from a virus. Also, viral meningitis is a horrible disease where the virus attacks the meninges (or brain / nerve tissue) and cause paralysis and in many cases death.
