Sounds like you speak from experience......
some mates.....
If an MP3 is infected then it would request a non-standard codec from the internet, not internet so no virus laden codec..
By the bye though as the disconnect from internet line is an old IT services joke that evolved from the ever famous "Do you still have the box for the computer,
yes, then please put it back in the box and return it to the store you bought it from as you're too stupid to use it" which has been put down to many different companies and I first heard it whilst working for DEC in 1988
BTW, Mac's have got nothing on DEC's reputation for being virii free
