There's this one stupid thing inside the phone called 'caribe'. What is it ? After turning off the phone and on again, when i press the menu button for 2 seconds, the caribe is still there, but i cannot open it, it will stuck.

And when i on my bluetooth, it will automatically send this caribe thing to other phones that is in range with bluetooth on. Even when the other phone already accept it, it will continue sending the thing non stop.

Now i already removed the caribe thing, but still when pressing the menu button for 2 seconds the caribe thingy is still opened. How to solve ?

Btw i already made a backup of my phone content. If i reset my phone, will all the software be deleted ? Those software like kodak photo, games, etc.

Thanx in advance

Cabir is a bluetooth using worm that runs in Symbian mobile phones that support Series 60 platform.

Cabir replicates over bluetooth connections and arrives to phone messaging inbox as caribe.sis file what contains the worm. When user clicks the caribe.sis and chooses to install the Caribe.sis file the worm activates and starts looking for new devices to infect over bluetooth.

When Cabir worm finds another bluetooth device it willstart sending infected SIS files to it, and lock to that phone so that it won't look other phones even when the target moves out of range.

Please note that Cabir worm can reach only mobile phones that support bluetooth, and are in discoverable mode.

Setting you phone into non-discoverable (hidden) Bluetooth mode will protect your phone from Cabir worm.

But once the phone is infected it will try to infect other systems even as user tries to disable bluetooth from system settings.

When user clicks on the caribe.sis in phone messaging inbox the phone will display a warning dialog

If user clicks yes the Cabir worm will activate and show a dialog that contains the name that virus author wants to give to the worm and the authors initialias and group initial 29A. Although it seems that in some phone models, for example Nokia 6600 this dialog is not shown.
