get a file manager and go into the system folder and look for stuff named cabir and delete it also look a folder called recogs maybe a file or 2 in there as well do this in the c and e(mmc)
that should be enough to get rid of it
heres what symantec say you should do about it
To remove SymbOS.Cabir:


Install a file manager program on the phone.
Enable the option to view the files in the system directory.
Search the drives, A through Y, for the \SYSTEM\APPS\CARIBE directory.
Delete the files CARIBE.APP, CARIBE.RSC, and FLO.MDL from the \CARIBE directory.
Go to the C:\SYSTEM\SYMBIANSECUREDATA\CARIBESECURITYMANAGER directory.
Delete the files CARIBE.APP, CARIBE.RSC, and CARIBE.SIS.
Go to the C:\SYSTEM\RECOGS directory.
Delete the file, FLO.MDL.
Go to the C:\SYSTEM\INSTALLS directory.
Delete the file, CARIBE.SIS.

Note: You cannot delete the file CARIBE.RSC when the program is running.

If you cannot delete this file in steps 4 and 6, delete all the files that you can, restart the phone, and then delete the CARIBE.RSC f
