ok my friend has a problem and I copyed it from my email so here the problem word for word

Here's the story...
Someone borrowed my laptop and brought it back with a burned out power supply. When he returned it he didn't realize I was going to take the hard drive out to retrieve some info I needed. When I hooked the hard drive to my desktop PC I realized the laptop drive was horribly infected with a virus (over 500 infected files removed by Norton Antivirus). I also found several porn videos that had been downloaded starting the day after this person borrowed the laptop. These aren't just porn pictures or small clips; some are up to 45 minutes long.

When questioned, the person who borrowed my laptop claimed that the virus must have been there before he borrowed it and that the virus is responsible for downloading the porn videos.

Please tell me if it is possible for a virus to download porn videos on a computer. I thought websites wanted people to pay for these, so why would a virus give them to people for free?

"I thought websites wanted people to pay for these, so why would a virus give them to people for free?"

There's over 1000000000000 hours of free porn on the net. I'm not going to say how as illegal discussion is not allowed on this forum. *hint*

Maybe the porn he downloaded had a virus binded to it. - So when he runs the movie the virus also launches.

So what's the question? The reason I posted a response is because I don't see a real question. Just more of a statement.

My question is If you have a virus, would that virus be able to put porn on your computer? Not just pictures and popups and emails, but full 1/2 hour to 45 minute videos.

The borrower claims innocence on all counts - the virus and the porn
