Can computer viruses be transfered via CD?

Sure.
If a virus is burned onto a CD-ROM, and then if the Autorun file points to the virus, then simply putting the CD into a Windows box will run the virus.
Hopefully, though, your systems run anti-virus checkers that will (again, hopefully) stopthe infection from taking place.
