A new mobile phone virus has been found in the wild that can spread from cellphones to PC. The virus infects (as usual) a Symbian OS phone either thru Bluetooth or after being download and then infects a Windows computer when the memory card from the phone is used on the PC. This will then propagate to the internet and vice versa.
The new mobile phone virus, dubbed SYMBOS_CARDTRP.A, propagates on Symbian Series 60 devices. Once the mobile phone virus infects a PC, it will eventually launch WORM_WUKILL.B, a worm that attempts to spread the infection to other PCs.
