You won't get any viruses if you don't download anything.

True.

And the hacker(s) won't be able to disguise a virus as a pokertracker update unless they have the sourcecode, wich they dont.

ABSOLUTELY UNTRUE ! Please please stop talking about things you apparently don't understand ! You definately DONT need any sourcecode to disguise a trojan as PT-update !
All you need is a debugger/disassembler and some good coding skills, nothing more !
@Pat: Why don't you use MD5-Hashes for verifying the integrity of the downloaded files ? This is pretty standard in the open source community, and if you sign the MD5-Hashes with something like PGP it would be pretty safe.... at least for the people who care to verify their files before installing...
