3.

Virii defines a category of software that is comprised of viruses, worms and trojans. The general usage of the word is to describe a collection of software.

Virii itself is a plural word as there is no need for a singluar form because the more descriptive singular form of {virus, worm, or trojan} could be used.

Virii is not the plural form of virus (which is viruses). Virii has nothing to do with biological viruses.

Correct: I have a huge collection of virii!

Incorrect: I got a virii on my computer.

6.

The form virii would not have been a correct plural, since the ending -ii only occurs in the plural of masculine and feminine words ending in -ius. For instance, take radius, plural radii: the root is radi-, with the singular ending -us and the plural -i. Thus the plural virii is that of the nonexistent word virius . The form viri would also be incorrect in Latin. The ending -i is normally used for masculine or feminine nouns, not neuter ones such as virus; moreover, viri (albeit with a short i in the first syllable) is the plural of vir, and means "men."
