Answer 1

It depends where you download the software from. If you download it from Adobe.com it wont' have viruses but if you download it using a torrent it will probably have a few viruses.

Adobe programs use a lot of processing power so it will slow your computer down slightly but only when the software is running.

Download it?

It costs $650.

Answer 4

As written by others, depends where you get it.  Other than at Adobe you really open yourself up to a virus.  If you are using Vista, then you probably better have 4 Gb of RAM.  If XP, 2 Gb of RAM will be okay.
