Don't know the answer to the virus but turn the keyboard upside down and try a warm hairdryer on it which should dry it out. You might find it takes a while but it should be OK! ;)

There is a virus doing the rounds that comes into your Inbox looking like a message you have sent to an address that does not exist (you know the kind that bounce back saying mailbox not known or message undeliverable). It will ask you to open the attachement as it says that is a copy of the original message.

Be VERY CAREFUL about opeinign the attachment as it's likely to contain a virus.

We get 4-5 of these every day in the OV Inbox and they are a real pain:(.
