Hi there, I got a friend who has a Nokia 6600 and recently he got infected with a Virus via Bluetooth. Now his mobile phone tries once and another to send "funny" files to any mobile around. My P910i doesnt recognizes it, but seems to infect other mobiles.

This virus works like if Bluetooth is disabled, but the thing is that is not operative for the user, only for the Virus. If you want to disable it completely, it won't let you do it.

If downloaded the Mobile Security from Trend Micro, but it won't let him installed because the space in drive, but there's pelnty of space.

What can he (we) do?? Any help or suggestions??

Thanks for your help.

Regards from sPain.

do a hard reset of the handset, turn off the phone, hold * 3 and call button then turn the phone on holding those buttons until the phone formats itself back to factory settings
