    No. Mac doesn't get viruses.

    People write and make viruses to harm a certain OS.

    Such as Windows, Which most people use now, and the maker of the virus would want to target an OS almost everybody uses.

    Hardly anybody uses Macs, therefore people not writting viruses for the OS Mac.

    Just like the Mac, I highly doubt people will create a virus especially for your ipod touch.

    But I guess it could happen.

    Just watch what you're doing on the internet.

  • Nope, its ipod touch different operating system then PC, also Mac has a very small percentage in getting viruses, its possible but very rare..

    good luck!!

    I'm not sure, because most viruses are written for Windows. I have no idea what OS Touch has.
