Samsung revealed that it's possible for your smart TV to get a virus, just like a computer. Here's how to make sure your TV isn't infected.

• Samsung recently tweeted about the uncommon knowledge that smart, WiFi-connected TVs are susceptible to viruses, just like computers. 
• Samsung deleted the tweet, which contained a link to a video that shows Samsung TV owners how to check for viruses on their TVs.
• The video is still available on Samsung's site, and it's incredibly simple to perform the virus scan. Ideally, TVs should scan for viruses automatically, but at least you now know that your smart TV is still vulnerable to malware.
