A virus that downloads deadly data? In a general sense, malware are a class of harmful codes that can do a lot of bad things to your system, depending on how it was designed and what scheme it employs to destroy data. That "deadly data" can be referred to as the payload, which can be anything from a code that will steal your private info like ids, passwords, to codes that can create backdoors for potential intruders to infiltrate.

The deadly data, or payload, is basically part of the malware (or virus if you prefer to call it ), and are both spread as infections sets into your system.
