worried about my new Access virus.... i turned it off....but maybe i'm just being paranoid....
can the hardware virus get a virus ??

Yes, if it starts coughing, spluttering and foaming at the MIDI outs, it may need surgery.
Funniest thread ever.
Your Access Virus is completely safe.
Microsoft Windows viruses and Access Viruses are completely incompatible. ;P
BTW, use Avast (http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html) for your Windows PeeCee - It's free and very reputable.

sometimes the older os's seemd like a virus ;0
Since using automation lanes instead of midi cc it got MUCH better.
Or was it the new cubase?

Not unless there's one specifically designed for it. Wouldn't that be a bitch?

Agreed - daftest thread I read in a while...but never the less a possibility!
I foget yes I believe 3.3.4.0 is a virus ;) Cough!
To my knowledge, the Access Virus is programmed in assembly language.
Plus the operating system of the Virus is read-only until you put it into "update mode", and even then I believe there's a buffer which checks the data in memory to make sure it's legit before finally flashing the ROM with the new OS.
Avast is superb for your Windows PC. I've used it for the past 7 years or so and it's saved my ass a number of times, every time. Whereas others (such as AVG) haven't.
