Visible Symptoms

Upon execution, a long string is displayed, and the user is prompted to press any key. The infected device then operates at an abnormally slow pace.

Detailed Analysis

This 'Denial of Service' threat abuses the Symbian stack cleanup process to cripple the host device. Besides monopolizing most of the CPU time, however, there is no deleterious effect on the host system.

Recommended Action

Reboot the phone and delete the file with a file manager application - or run FortiClient Mobile Security.
