Re: Mobile Virus??
If you are sure that its coz of a virus then you can use eighter Simworks AntiVirus or F-Secure AntiVirus application for Series 60.

After scaning stilll if you are facing problem then you may backup necessary files(like images, sound, vedio etc.) and format your device.

Check this url: http://www.newlc.com/article.php3?id_article=184 for formating a device.

Virus??.. do they really exist for mobile phones?
Cabir is not a virus.
It only will be installed and run on your phone if you accept and install it yourself.

Accept Bluetooth connection from Fred? Y
Install Cabir? Y


Opps, now I got a virus...how did that virus get there?

Yeah, thanks. but cabir is NOT a virus as I stated earlier.
You must install it yourself in order to have it on your phone.

I'm asking are there any real viruses for phones?

Only way get to this kind of "virus" is to download pirated s60 software or being a dumb ass. Like isseyp stated you have to press "Yes" so many times that it can't be accident!
