Can an ebook put a virus on my computer?

I avoid ebooks like the plague. 

 

I took great care not to buy an ebook and yet, despite claiming paperback status, 

I managed to win an ebook on ebay.  Uh huh. 

 

So I got the mail and clicked the link and got an ebook.

I assume this is how it's done. 

 

A book about viruses.  Go figure. 

 

The next day my computer started slowing down. Even locking up. 

Had to manually turn my computer off. 

I have a mac.  

 

Can an ebook infect my mac with a virus?

Yep.  Anything on the internet can infect your computer.
