Legitimate texture packs will not cause a virus. Of course, just in case, always have antivirus software active on your computer. (Avast!)
no they don't give viruses
Minecraft texture packs should not have any viruses in them. I have never heard of anyone getting a virus from a texture pack, so you should be all set.
Computers may obtain viruses in a number of different ways, including downloading music or movies, downloading pornagraphic material, or even opening an untrustworthy email. If the game software has a virus, then it is absolutely possible for the computer to become infected by downloading a game.
Usually no. The more popular mods never have viruses. However, if you get a not well known one, I suggest looking at the reviews...
