Default New Symbian Virus Prevents You From Placing Calls
http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?ContentId=3968

It all started 7 months ago with Cabir, and while that virus was relatively calm, todays virus is much more harmful. The virus still travels using the same method of fooling the user into running it, but once it's executed this latest version will go as far as preventing you from making calls. This is still just a Symbian problem, but that doesn't mean Windows Mobile phones are any safer. As the number of Windows Mobile devices grows, so does the risk.
