Detailed Analysis

This Trojan is basically an application overwriter for Symbian Series 60 devices (PDA devices, cell phones, etc). It's purpose is to make the compromised user's life miserable in the sense that a lot of already existing programs are replaced with a 6 byte dummy file, essentially disabling the application from running.

This Trojan may be found within a .SIS file, or Symbian installable package file. When the .SIS file extracts its contents, it writes files into folders that may already exist, including the following -

\system\apps\answrec\answrec.app

All .APP files replaced are 6 bytes in size, with the contents simply being "33".

The Trojan writes a text file as "raghu.txt", and the contents of that file are the following -
