This type of mobile virus is very interesting that it'll steal user phonebook data and then it will compile it into a text file and sent it through
bluetooth without user confirmation.
So far, this is the first Symbian Virus that I've seen that it will steal user data without
user confirmation and sent thorogh other bluetooth supported devices.
This trojan was distributed in an application file and it is spreading in pbexplorer.SIS.
When user try to install this suspicious *.SIS file, the image shown below is screenshoot taken during installation process:
After installation complete, the application has set to run automatically and will display the following text:
| please wait... |
| until done... |
it will start searching for bluetooth devices and sent all phonebook information in
text file via bluetooth.
This malware requires that the user intentionally install them upon the device. As always, users should never install third party application from unknown site.
Profimail v2.75_FULL.SIS/SymbOS Mabtal.A is a SIS file malware that pretends to be a cracked version of Profimail which is a very popular E-Mailing third party application in Symbian Platform, in fact, it is a malware which drops Mabir.A, Caribe and Fontal variants into the phone system, besides, it also drops some corrupted binaries file which causing the phone auto-restart and showing fatal error message. Next the phone will fail to boot-up permanently.
Positive analysis results:

Cabir virus will start spreading via bluetooth and keeps listening if any incoming message arrives in the phone, when any SMS/MMS message arrives in the phone, mabir.A virus will immediately sent itself out via MMS for spreading purpose.

SplinterCell-ChaosTheory_S60_cracked-XiMPDA.SIS OR SymbOS/Skudoo.A..This is a Series 60 trojan that installs skulls trojan, MGdropper, Commwarrior, Doomboot.A and cabir into the targeted device. When this trojan executed, most of application in the phone being replaced by a non-functional or corrupted files by the trojan into the phone, causing application can't run as usual. It fails to attack NOKIA 6680 while the phone has been restarted. Anyway, McAfee AVERT mentioned that this trojan will cause the phone fail to reboot on the next restart by the user.
It is also the first mobie trojan in the world which capable propagates MGDropper virus and Commwarrior virus vice-versa.
It contains also the image as shown below while I have extracted the *.SIS file:
