    Ok I reformatted my computer due to a virus before I did I backed up all my I-tunes music onto a dvd-R disk. Call me paranoid but can the virus I had a trjoin and keylogger I think be on a music file? When I did the scan before I reformatted none of the viruses where on I-tuns or music files but could there be one hiding in a music file? I dont want to infect my clean computer. I do have kaspersky 2010 installed would it chatch it if there was one? Again im really paranoid lol.

    Kaspersky is pretty well regarded, so yes, it certainly should catch stuff that is in music files, but nothing wrong with trying a few different programs to scan your files if you are that concerned.
