Skull & Bones attack Symbian Series 60 Devices

A virus targeted to Symbian Series 60 handsets was released this week, infected phones have been plagued with replaced icons of skull images prior to their phones becoming unbootable. The Skulls Trojan was found in a program called “Extended Theme Manager” by “Tee-222″, it can be downloaded from various shareware sites (but obviously you don’t want to install it).
