K700i Incoming 15kb Bluetooth Problem/Virus?

Whenever I'm at home (it doesn't happen when I'm out an about) my K700i (Orange branded) mobile phone continually displayes the message:
Incoming Item
File Size: 15kb
...
Continue?
Yes/No

No matter whether I press Yes or No , the message disappears and nothing arrives.

I've tried searching for nearby Blutooth devices using my PC and all it finds is the phone (and I still get this message when the PC is off so it's not something coming from my PC).
I live in a terrace of houses so the neighbors bluetooth devices could be within range (but the PC doesn't find them as above, and I can't use the phone to check as it's continually busy trying to recieve something).

Any ideas what it could be?

Help. It's driving me mental.

Regards

Rod

Probably some bug, definitely not a virus since none have been made for k700 yet.... did u try asking the SE service center guys ?

Not yet. Thought I'd ask you lot first.

Will try a hard reset on the phone once I've got all my info off.

but you mentioned that it happens only when your at home, probably some interference near your house is causing your k700 to malfunction ?

sahran non-symbian phones arent affected by cabir virus
