Some viruses modify non-executable files. However, in order
to spread, the virus must be executed. Therefore the infected
non-executables files cannot be a source of further
infections.
However some data files like .OBJ files, libraries, device
drivers, macro files for some packages like MS Word, Excel,
Power Point, and Lotus 1-2-3 can be used by the virus as an
infection carrier.
