Ipod
Have been using 4shared to get songs for my ipod 
But last night it went ***** up not knowing what itunes was doing PC slow etc.
Yesterday lunchtime d/loaded new songs then last night it wouldn't work.
Turned out i had a virus on my ipod?
Got it all sorted now but how would this happen?

Silly question but how do you know you had a virus on the iPod? Do you happen to know what virus it was?
I could see that perhaps an mp3 file was infected with a virus and thus by that song being copied onto the iPod the virus was on the iPod, in the same way it could reside in a file on your hard drive.
However, I doubt the iPod would be infected by the virus, I've never heard of this happening, plus the iPod is running a pretty specific OS (if you can call it an OS) so it's not as if it's a case of windows being infected.
It might be that you had a corrupt track and it was causing the iPod to freeze up, that I've heard of, and experienced myself.
