Can I get a virus from clicking on a link?

[Raymond Lin]

A client sent me an email last night, or so I thought, I clicked on the link and it was some random website. I closed the page and deleted the email thinking it was just spam. Her account or computer clearly has a Trojan or virus but in terms of OSX, can a virus get to me that way?

I didn't install or download any dmg files if that helps.

You should be fine.

Are you new to Mac Ray? You seem to ask a lot of newish questions? The one about the whole spaces in the other thread shocked me!?

I know I should be fine but i am just double checking.
