Ipods, text files and virusses?

Question

I like using the note pad function on my ipod nano to read ebooks and blogs(like ones from this site: http://ebookhood.com/ )

Is it possible for malware or virusses to attach themselves to .txt files to then infect my ipod?

Answer 1

No, I don't think you can get a virus on your iPod. Only on computers since they can 'run' files, on your iPod you just read them. I am almost positive that you are safe.
