Nope there true Windows (ie no linux systems).  The idea of a virus also 
   is very slim as all system have a virus checking software ie Norton 
Virus 2005, Nod32, PCGuard etc.  The is some noise on other mailing list 
that it an issue with updated WGA.  The reset only happens once and it 
isn't a system safe reset!
