I wonder how do they get infected?
Since that every msg coming in is controlled by the user (whether to receive or to install), why is it the virus still spreading around the world?
Well, jz curious, no offence.

Btw, nice to hear that dude has solved the problem.
Again, SF rocks!


i think probally a mixture of stupidity and and curiosity which is how these worms spread so widely, user just wonder what it could be and accept it onto there phone. as calvin says many many many times. never accept any thing from anyone who you dont know or are not expecting

Well, for now, not many people have much knowledge about security prevention and thus they might feel curious of installing those "suspicious" file into the phone and Commwarrior has a very good way to spread itself without those innocent user attention until they get billed! :shock: :shock: :shock:

@ BeerBong
Use AppMan and check what is the free memory on your phone.
Since you mentioned of N-Gage it normally has around 9.5 MB free :smile:

It shouln't be around 7-8MB :hmm:

Anyways since You have used Calvin Stinger,you shouldn't have any problem :yeah:
