Viral DNA is the very simple DNA that runs the processes of viruses. Viruses can not live without feeding off of higher-level organisms, so there are not considered to be true life. If you know some about DNA, viruses have around 10,000 nucleotides. Bacterial DNA is much more complex, with millions of nucleotides. Bacteria are certainly life, because they often exist on their own. Both viruses and bacteria use DNA, but the difference is how much and how complex it is.
