I am trying to determine whether it is possible to be infected in the
following scenario:

Let us say that we suspect that computer 'A' (Windows 98 - not 2nd Edition)
has been infected.
Also, computer 'A' has shared a directory and this share name is 'tester'.

Now, computer 'B' (XP PRO sp1) logs into computer 'A' and the user is a
member of the administrators group on computer 'B'. Both computers are in
the same workgroup.

Is it possible for computer 'B' to become infected while transferring files
from the 'tester' share?

TIA.
