when downloading movies, series and anime they mostly come in those formats. Can they contain virus? if yes, do they get detected with antivirus?

    oh there is a way without the user accessing it espcially on Windows: Anti virus scanner
    since most of them scan all downloaded files a zero day exploit for these software might be automatically executed
    bonus points: Anti virus software typically has system permissions too

    (likelyhood is still hilariously low)
