how do I know if I have a virus
A friend's email account was hacked but unfortunately I opened it before she could warn everyone. How can I tell if I have now exposed my ipad to a virus or some other malware?
iPad Mini, iOS 8.1.1

If you have not jailbroken your iPad, you do not have a virus.
Sorry for my ignorance, but what exactly does jailbroken mean?
It means that the built-in protection of iOS have been disabled. It you don't know what this means your iPad has probably not been jailbroken.
Thank you Jim and Meg.
When you open the email, what is in it? Does it ask you to click a link or fill out info about you?
