    Can the IE app on Xbox 360 infect your PC/Laptop?


    I'm want to use the IE explorer app for the first time, but I was wondering is it possible for websites give your xbox a virus that can infect your router, modem, PC or laptops?

    :)

    How can I remotely control my pc over the xbox360 internet explorer app?

    Sorry but no such Method exist nor will there be one. It would require both a Download on your PC and Xbox 360 (which is impossible for the Xbox 360 IE App). Not to mention but the Xbox 360 is hardly an "administrator" for a Network.

    You do know you can simply plug in any USB Keyboard into the Xbox 360 and the IE App can use it for typing? No Mouse though. If that's what you meant/

    No. IE on your Xbox 360 is nothing like IE on your PC. The Xbox 360 operating system is sealed pretty tight. The IE on your console also has no security vulnerable plugins such as Flash or Java, for this reason as well.

    Xbox App doesn't detect my xbox 360 controller

    I mean the Xbox SmartGlass app on your laptop or PC . I 've read that a xbox 360 controller can be used for xbox one when you connect it to your laptop or PC when you are streaming your Xbox one to your laptop or PC . but It doesn't work.
