F-Secure Mobile Anti-Virus Series 60 - Back to FAQ list

Q 1. I think my phone is infected with a virus. What should I do?

If you suspect a virus infection, check the following:

• Find out where the infection came from; did you receive it via Bluetooth, MMS, or was it downloaded from the Internet?
• Check the process list (by holding the menu button pressed), and terminate all unknown processes (by selecting the process and pressing the ‘C’-button).
• Check if the Bluetooth icon is activated? Are other phones in close range getting Bluetooth connection attempts?
• Have people in your phonebook been receiving MMS messages with attached '.sis-files' from you?
• Does the phone menu work? Does it show something unusual? Does the Application Manager work?
• Do the symptoms resemble the most common mobile viruses (Cabir, Commwarrior, Skulls)? For more info on these, please see:
