A malicious code dubbed “Skulls” has been launched from Web sites that offered phone users downloads of wallpaper, games and ring tones, NewsFactgor reports.. The virus targets Nokia model 7610 phones that run on the Symbian operating system. It replaces all the phone’s icons with skulls and crossbones, and replaces all the working applications, rendering the phone useless for anything but voice calls, NewsFactor says.
