obviously windows virus aint going to install or harm windows but like if you download a file on your sd card and it has a win virus.
 
Nope, wrong OS altogether.
Nothing to worry about.

None of the APIs will be where the Virus's program is looking for them to be. It would not even launch in the first place though.
 
i meant if i dl a file on my sd and its a auto run windows virus i wanted to now i could scan before plugging into pc. sometimes i dl files on phone while im away from home so i have them when i get home
 
If you're as careful with the links you click on and what you're downloading when you're on your phone as you are when on your PC, you have nothing to worry about.

The bottom line is don't download anything or visit anywhere that you're likely to get a virus from and there won't be any problems.
