Funny texts stuff...

[badinvincible]

Last night whilst in the pub, I got a text from my mate who was beside me even though he wasn't texting. It was just a load of jumbled up letters and numbers. Then another mate got one from me and some other guy I know got the same one.

What's that all about?

Can't see D500 in the list? Also, what kind of file do I open it as?

 

[ViolentJ]

an extensive google search isn't finding any software for the D500.... there's a forum you can ask on though if i can find it.

try asking here: mobilephonevirus.com

OK cheers, never thought of googling it.

Right, so the Commwarrior virus won't affect my D500 then because it's not the Symbian OS? When I opened up the text, it disappeared from my inbox...?!

anyone got any idea?
