Some viruses come from hardware or software that you buy from stores, download software off the internet, or by simply going to websites. It's more likely that you can get a virus from the Internet as the Internet is an unsecured area from viruses. Don't go to sites that possibly have fake information or is trying to impersonate another site as these sites are most likely either trying to play a joke, or are hoping that you will come so that a virus can get into your computer.
