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 |

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 ? 
If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence of your attempt !! |
