Can you get spyware and viruses on the Wii?

I wanted to know before I start becoming a total lazy ***, and surf the internet on my Wii, if it can get hacked, spyware, or viruses.....

If so, how will it take a toll on the console?

There is no way to get viruses or spyware on a Wii. It doesnt have an operating system like a normal computer where you cn just install stuff. Colsoles are very different to computers in this aspect. Viruses and spyware work by targeting certain files within an operating system. For Windows this might be explorer.exe or for OSX or Linux it might be the kernel file (I have no idea what the extension for that is). Either way a console doesnt have any of these so a virus or spyware would have to be specificaly designed to target something more flexible with the console. That being said a console uses what is called firmware for its basic instructions which is semi hard coded into the consoles hardware and cannot be altered by normal means making many forms of virus useless anyway. All this is besides the point anyway, no-one has figured out how to run unsigned code on a Wii yet anyway so it is impossible to even make a virus or spyware for the Wii which means that the Wii is currently one of the safest web browsers available

ive had not heard any reports on wii getting viruses,spyware,or hacked so i guess is pretty safe to go surf the Internet.
Not that I know of, I've been online a lot with mine and I've had it since Christmas.
