For more detailed information, see the Commwarrior.B description at: http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/commwarrior_b.shtml The main difference between Commwarrior.B and Commwarrior.D is that the text used in messages sent by Commwarrior.D are in Spanish.

Disinfection

F-Secure Mobile Anti-Virus will detect Commwarrior variants and delete the worm components.

If your phone is infected with Commwarrior and you cannot install files over bluetooth, you can download F-Secure Mobile Anti-Virus directly to your phone.

  •  Open web browser on the phone
  • Select link "Download F-Secure Mobile Anti-Virus" and then select your phone model
  • Download the file and select open after download
  • Install F-Secure Mobile Anti-Virus
  • Go to the applications menu and start Anti-Virus
  • Activate Anti-Virus and scan all files
  • Reboot your phone to kill the Commwarrior process that is still running
After disinfecting your phone, you can remove the remaining empty directories by going to the application manager and uninstalling the SIS file in which Commwarrior arrived.
