Mad cow Disease is not a flu. It is caused by different kinds of organisms called prions, not viruses. It is much more severe than Swine Flu since the infection is in the brain and central nervous systems of the cattle.

"Cow flu" seems to me more of a satirical sense of "illness" that is only made up by those who like to BS, after the pandemics of swine flu and bird flu that had passed around in previous years. In a more serious sense, cow flu doesn't exist. So I wouldn't worry about it.

Can Muslims eat bulls?

Yes Muslims are allowed to eat cow, its pork that they cannot eat because God said in the Holy Quran that pork has diseases and is filled with bacteria. Look, its completely right, look at what happend with swine flu. This has been in the Quran for more than a thousand years and the Quran is the only Holy book that has not been changed and has only one book and not many versions. God told us what would happen, and now people did not listen and we have swine flu everywhere. That's why many Muslim countries are happy because they don't deal with pigs and don't have swine flu everywhere.
