Can an iPod touch get a virus from going on facebook with it? - Vanessa - 11-09-2012 09:47 PM

We all know facebook has a thousand viruses, so if i used the facebook app, and wifi, could i get a virus from facebook?

Facebook doesn't have viruses because you can't download anything from it. What it has is that the amps allow the creators to see your information that you posted on facebook. Second, ipods work with a operative system which is not really interesting to virus creators thus there is no IPod viruses release yet.

very unlikely. Most viruses are written for PC, and the iPod is a Mac product. Also, simply viewing Facebook from any browser is not going to give you a virus. Just don't click on suspicious links.
