Hi, I have a Trojan Virus on my computer and I was wondering if it could be Transfered to my mobile

First of all, there is no such thing as ''a Trojan Virus''. It's like calling a vehicle ''a motorcycle car''. Trojan horses and viruses are two different kinds of malicious programs. The fundamental difference between them is that viruses replicate themselves, while Trojan horses do not.

Assuming that you have a Trojan horse on your computer, it won't transfer itself anywhere - neither on your mobile nor anywhere else - because, as mentioned above, Trojan horses don't replicate themselves. Case closed.

Now, if you have a virus on your PC, things get more interesting. Basically, the answer of your question depends on the exact nature of the virus and the exact model of your mobile device.

Normally, programs that run on the PC can't run on mobile devices - so a PC virus can't infect such a device directly. However, multi-platform viruses do exist. For instance, a PC virus could drop a Symbian program that infects Symbian phones.

In addition, if your mobile device looks like a removable (USB) drive to your PC when connected to it, a PC virus could copy itself to the root directory of the drive and create an autorun.inf file there, which file will ensure its automatic execution the next time the drive is mounted to a new PC. So, while technically the mobile device won't be infected (the virus can't run on it), it will contain a virus and will serve as an infection vector for other PCs.
