Doubt they would ask that but if they did simply explain that it would be much easier for a virus to simply have its own remote software built in or even download 3rd party software. Teamviewers super popular but I dont think a teamviewer virus exists that will read the password and ID and send it out.

That's a perfect example. Tons of people use teamviewer but I have yet to hear of viruses attacking it. Worth a search though, time to put these google powersearching classes to the test!
