Cabir worm pretends to be Flash Lite…

by kai 10/01/2005

If you own a Symbian cellphone and if you’re interested in Macromedias Flash Lite player, watch out! There is a .SIS-file around (the Symbian installer format) which pretends to be the Flash Lite player but which contains the Cabir worm for Symbian… This is ugly, so be careful.
