As someone else pointed out:
- Mainframes don't run Windows
- They don't even have Intel or AMD processors in them
- On a real mainframe, you'd be hard pressed to even run Linux on it
(except maybe in a special VM the mainframe presented to you)
I don't know what you saw, but it most definitely wasn't "a windows virus on a
mainframe".
