  Certainly not. The virus present on your laptop is meant to run only in windows environment and they will be inactive at other places. However, it could happen that they migrate to other computer if you connect your mobile device there. Rest assured that they cannot impact your mobile device.
  
  There are very few viruses, most were made to run on Symbian S40 platform and some for S60. Few are emerging for Android as well and Android might get be targeted more due to its increasing utility.
  
  Rest of the phones which doesn't run those are not susceptible to viruses.

  I think it is actually possible!!. Many phones use Java, and similar technologies which are common to both Mobile Phones and PC's, so it is better to scan the folders where u transferred files and be sure not to infect your phone 👍

  Umm no. The other java phones are not actually affected. Only Symbian S40. Besides a virus working on windows could never affect any phone till date. The technology is same, but not the hardware configuration.

  Only thing that is affected is the space. Those stray files will occupy space, that's all. You'll have to clean up them manually.

  Understand that a virus is a computer code that is meant for some malicious purpose. If, while copying, you copied the virus files (hidden, or unknowingly) and the virus is able to execute itself in the environment offered by your mobile (mostly dependent on the operating system, firmware, system voids etc.) then your phone stands a risk of virus affecting your mobile phone.
  
  However, there's a 90% (or 99%) chance that this won't be the case always. Most of the viruses are written for the Windows platform and they don't just work 'as-is' in other environments. There would of course be exceptions where the virus files attack specific parts of the software (aka contact lists or messages or phone settings).

  Try resetting the phone in that case.
  Your phone memory will be erased. That means your contacts, messages and all other stuff if stored in your phone memory will be lost.
