Nanobacteria is the smallest known lifeform. It is suggested that this is how we have evolved from one solar system to another. Space-spores. Who's ur Daddy?

a living organism is defined as something that can reproduce by itself (either asexually or sexually with a partner) but viruses have to hijack the machinery (such as some enzymes) inside another organisms cell in order to replicate.
so the next smallest thing would be a unicellular bacterium.

If viruses were life forms (the discussion still going on), yes they would be. There were some sort of nano-bacterias discovered on a meteorite, but none were alive, and they are seeing if they were bacterias or crystals and other non living formatons.

Yes, it is a lifeform which attacks health in the environment and humans.

I wouldn't consider viruses to be life forms. They cannot replicate themselves without the RNA of a living host.
