I guess he either meant through amazon or via the Apple up-to-date program for when you've bought a Mac recently. He's bought an MBP 13", so I guess it's the latter.

Since there _are_ no viruses for Mac OS X, it's rather unlikely. Rather, I'd suggest you either get the original installation disks or you buy a new set of retail installation. Snow Leopard is around...
