I just saw a message the other day from NASRIC (Nasa's Automated Systems 
Incident Response Capability) saying that there are NO web-related 
viruses/trojan horses/etc.
Now, if it were a file transfered to your machine, decompressed, then 
executed, that has NOTHING to do with the web, except that it was used 
as a vehicle for the virus.  This could also be accomplished via FTP, 
Gopher, transfer via floppy, you get the idea.
