Can malicious files start infecting before opening it?
I always read to scan files before opening them. Okay, that doesn't sound too bad. But once you download a file, can't it already start doing damage before you even run/open it, as it is already on the harddrive? Thanks.

That's really too bad.. I'll guess I'll lock this thread after a few more comments.
I think so,
I believe it can, depending on what exactly it is.
