@moderator
First of all please remove the poll

@tarong
As far as i know there are no viruses for motorola system platform unless you have symbian or windows mobile and that's quite imposible on an e398 :| (CMIIW)
So please tell us more because you didn't gave us many details. Whats the main problem what's wrong with your phone?

POLL REMOVED

agreed with brucelee it cannot attack the phone system.. but it can attack the memorycard..

[BruceLee]

how could it attack the memory card? probably that could be possible just while the tf card is connected to the computer (and then we're talking about a computer virus) but through the phone probably he's not doing anything

[napi_n]

from what i knew and heard, motorola phone never ever will be infected by virus..so buddy, dont be worry. proud to be helo moto.. haha..

[error398]

AFAIK, the virus still can attack ur MMC but it cant do anything bcoz the filesystem in MMC just for read only.. its just duplicate, it didnt broke ur phone.. trust me..

[Jithin]

All viruses which spread through pen drives can affect your memory card,but it can do nothing to your phone..

[3sixthy]

yeah the virus cant replicate or even attack the phone....
the virus can be spread by bluetooth....I've ever got the virus when transfr song from Rokr....lol

[error398]

its safe.. no worry bout virus..LOL

[BruceLee]

guys i think we should wait to see what's tarong gonna say

[EOG]

tarong do not worry if your comp finds a virus on your card that means that this is only virus for computers and any computer antyvir should delete it.


For rest:
There is a possibility to make virus for e398/e1 but it is really hard peep that would write it must know all the e398 processor assembler, know special functions that Motorola uses to code and compile their mobiles and many more. The only person that is known to me and is the nearest of knowledge of needed things is elektro255 and I do not think so that he will do that 'hes a good guy '

The other possibility of viruses for e398/e1 is are "Bluetooth viruses" those are not really viruses but some programs that allow to do something with sb mobile. But this apps needs perdition(asked at first connection) and special code to access sb mobile, what is more is that e398/e1 has old bluetooth system and for them worst thing is just to read SMS so it cost you nothing.

The last possibility is that if sb write its own Firmware from basics(applying functions to control mobile) that person would control all mobiles that has his/her firmware whenever he/she wants, but again the only person I know is elektro255 and some Russian guys from motofan.ru(their good guys as elektro255) and time to write it(write is so good and add as many functions that they would made peeps to use it) would took about 2 years and in that time I bet we will mod other motorola mobile so it's useless.
