aslong as you DO NOT download executables files like .exe or .com, .bat, .vbs or even .dll's you will be fine.

Default simple solution to viruses

Ok, this is really simple and a lot of ppl dont think about it. Download any file you want , BUT...before you ever open it or try to play it, scan it with virus detector. I use avg (not tryin to plug em), so when i d/l ANY file, i right click on the file, scan with avg. I have found many viruses this way and NOT ONE has affected me because of the way I do it. Like I said, simple.
