Hah! What I wrote is that the *Latin* plural of virus is viri, so there! :-) Assuming that virus is masculine.
Sorry, Tim virus is neuter, so the plural should be "vira". Nevertheless AFAIK the Romans themselves were not as sure about that. In Jurman we usually say "das Virus", (neuter) in medicine and "der Virus", (masculine) in computer science (using the German plural).
