The Nokia 3650, 3660, 3620 & 3600 are all effected by the CommWarrior Threat. May be it should be called the Ringtone Warrior for many of us, well a large percentage of us became infected as the result of a free ring tone...?.

Free Nokia Ring tone is a known trick or method by which this threat is spread along with Free Sex and Free 3D Game. Just Remember if it's free it could come with free bonus virus also (nothing quite like a free bonus item). it is important to be sure the site you download ringtones from is a secure site that you trust. Some sites are run by malicious coders who include spyware and viruses with the ringtones, which are two things nobody wants for free.

So If you've got this Infection or are scared of getting it.......you have 2 options to avoid catching it :

1. Download some mobile antivirus softwear like UMU Scan.
2. Be smart and hope you don't get caught out.

If you have it already then you can do one of 2 things also :

1. Download UMU Scan and it will fix it for you.
2. Try following the instructions below to see if you can fix it yourself.

Once running in a device, CommWarrior searches for other phones with Bluetooth. Once a target phone is found, it sends a randomly named SIS file to the target.

The SIS file enters the target phone’s Inbox attached to a message. When the message is opened, it activates the SIS file and installs the following:

!:\system\apps\CommWarrior\commwarrior.exe
!:\system\apps\CommWarrior\commrec.mdl

where “!” stand for a drive chosen by the user during installation (drive C for the phone’s default root…or drive E for the phone’s Multimedia Card).

Commwarrior.exe is executed immediately after installation. It copies the dropped components into the following paths:

C:\system\updates\commwarrior.exe
C:\system\updates\commrec.mdl
C:\system\recogs\commrec.mdl

It also drops a copy of the SIS installation package:

C:\system\updates\commw.sis

Commrec.mdl executes CommWarrior every time the phone is rebooted.

MMS Propagation

CommWarrior attempts to create and send out an MMS message with a copy of its SIS installer as attachment.
