There are two types of Computer Viruses. New ones that are wider spread today then actual VIRUSES. Are 1) Malware Applications. I dont believe most malware applications reproduce automatically, or are designed to actually damage any part of your computer.

The Second type of VIRUS is the actual viruses for example look up the 'Standard Stoned Virus' I believe it was one of the first viruses to come out and it had two purposes. One was to reproduce and the other was to damage your hard drive. (nasty)
