F-Secure Trojan Information Pages : CommDropper

This family of trojans drops files from the SymbOS/Commwarrior family. Members of the CommDropper family have no additional interesting functionality apart from dropping and installing embedded Commwarrior files along with some additional non-malware software.
F-Secure Mobile Anti-Virus will detect Comwarrior and delete the virus components.
If your phone is infected with Comwarrior and you cannot install files over bluetooth, you can download F-Secure Mobile Anti-Virus directly to your phone: - Open the phone's web browser
- Go to http://mobile.f-secure.com
- Select link "Download F-Secure Mobile Anti-Virus" and then select phone model
- Download the file and select open after download
- Install F-Secure Mobile Anti-Virus
- Go to applications menu and start Anti-Virus
- Activate Anti-Virus and scan all files
- Reboot the phone to remove any Commwarrior processes that are still running
After disinfecting the phone, you can remove any remaining empty directories by going to the application manager and uninstalling the SIS file in which Comwarrior arrived.
