What types of files can be infected by a virus?

0

A. As of right now, a virus can affect any file that actually does something. EXE and COM files are programs, and they can be infected because they do something. Data files that have macros in them can be infected because the macros do something. Basically, anything that is pure text data cannot be infected.
