Your N-Gage isn't safe anymore, and neither are any nother Series 60 phones you own. Why is this? A mobile worm. Symb/Cabir-A is a worm written specifically for Nokia Series 60 mobile phones running the Symbian operating system. The worm spreads as a .sis package, named as Caribe.sis. Inside the file are three other files, caribe.app, flo.mdl and caribe.rsc. However there is little danger given the multiple user prompts required to install this virus.

Those files are installed onto the System/Apps/Directory on the phone itself. The worm runs everytime the device is turned on or restarted, and worse, once Symb/Cabir-A is installed, it'll attempt to send itself to other Series 60 phones whenever your Bluetooth is activated. There are some measures that can be taken to avoid the worm, though, and even if you get it, it can be deleted. Our advice is to turn your bluetooth off whenever it's not needed, and don't turn it on in crowded areas for long periods of time. Also, know what you're installing on your phone. If you're downloading what you believe is a Series 60 version of Tetris and you see the file is Caribe.sis or another suspicious name, don't install it. Be alert and be smart on what you install onto your N-Gage, 3650, or other Series 60 device. Please note, while this specific worm at it's present stage does not cause any known damage to Series 60 phones, it's important to note that upcoming worms/viruses just might. Symb/Cabir will not install onto Pocket PCs, Palms or any other devices aside from Nokia Series 60 phones.
