Uncle sent me his kid's virii'ed computer.

i'm hooking up his hd to my pc via external enclosure. making sure not to run any EXE's from his HD and just firing up avira, doing a complete scan, save his pictures and media files then gonna format

is my system going to be at risk?


sorry i double posted this in software for windows, but i need a quick response!

Please do not double post.
