plus you wouldn't want to risk your ps3 getting a virus…cause that would suck

well that would mean someone would have to make a virus specifically for the ps3.  viruses are not multi-platform.  they are specifically made for one platform, as different operating systems work in different ways.

this is why the mac has fewer viruses than windows, and why linux has fewer viruses than the mac.  the reason why windows has the most is because there are more people using windows, and those who do, tend to not realise what they're doing on it most of the time.

making a virus for the ps3 would be quite a task.  the person who'd do it would have to know the ins and outs of the ps3's operating system and it's infrastructure.  Not to mention good knowlege in programming.
