Can Viruses transfer itself to a CD/DVD ?
As far as i know this usually don't happen , but in some forums , someone posted it is possible if the disc is writable . Now u must have seen an option in NERO while burning blank dvds, its called "make this a multi-session disc" to add more files later ... so if we select that option the disc still remains writable , Right ?
and if we don't select that option does it still remain a writable disc ??
What happened last night was , my Laptop froze to a black screen , it wouldn't start up even after re-inserting the laptop battery . This happened after i installed the software Audacity for mixing audio tracks.
After my PC froze i thought i would format my system and re-install windows.
So i used this win7 dvd (not original win7 dvd) . Anyway, so this dvd was once a blank writable dvd , in which i burned windows 7 files last year , but DID NOT used the multi-session option in NERO , so my question would be ... is the disc still writable ? You think viruses could have crept into that disc.
Btw last night i couldn't format the system coz it failed to boot from the disc. The system recovered itself. Scanned with my Anti-Virus, no infections found.
