Will a wireless router work when it is connected to a desktop computer that doesn't have a wireless card?

Are you asking if the computer will get internet? If so... Yes. as long as the router is connected to a modem via network cable and also connected to the desktop computer via network cable.The computer will not connect to the wireless signal sent out by the router. Without a wireless card, it will only work if it is hard patched via network cable to a working modem.
If you are asking if the wireless router will still work, even when its connected to a desktop computer with out a wireless card, the answer is also yes. and i this situation, a wireless card in the computer is completely irrelevant so I'm guessing this is not what you meant.

If you connect a computer that has a virus to a computer that doesnt have a virus will the computer that doesnt have a virus get one?
Only if you transfer an infected file to the un-infected computer is it possible, or if you have an open connection where the infected computer may send (without permission) code, or files -like SQL injectors-. One other way is if you have a connection where you're connected to a server through the other computer that lets the infected computer 'ping' (another way of sending code to comfirm connection status).

What do you do if your zune doesnt read but it charges when you connect it to the computer?
I have a Zune Hd and also had this problem. Go to: Start >Control Panel >Windows Firewall >Change Settings >Exceptions and check the box "Zune Wireless Sync". Then hit "ok". That should fix your problem, (to sync media, open the zune software while your zune is connected, to charge and use the zune close the zune software).
