If you drag from the Card to the computer then the computer burns the CD there are no problems with Viruses. DO NOT PUT FILES BACK ON THE CARD. You can burn directly from your card to CD through the computer but spyware then becomes a problem if the computer has any spyware on it. Somehow the spyware is always working once in a computer and it is possible, ever so remotely that it may infect your card So I would suggest to drag your files (photo's) to the computer then immediately remove the card, BUT the Actual CD can have the, all, any viruses, spyware etc from the computer. Best yet is to get a couple of extra Memory Cards duty free when you leave and you will have enough storage. You can then use the cards (after downloadin photo's) when you get home to carry info from one computer to another instead of floppies and burning CD's. Anyway a penny for those thoughts.
