Does the Ares website have viruses?

It depends on what you download

here is an answer from Yahoo

If you are just trying to download songs, you shouldn't have too many problems, but If you are downloading games, movies, or other software products, try to know the correct size, and NEVER download a file that is smaller than 1 MB.

It WILL be a virus.

Also never download an exe file..only RAR files, and always scan with your virus protection
