The first serious outbreak of a mobile-phone virus in a company has been detected, according to security specialist F-Secure.
The Commwarrior mobile phone virus, which spreads using Bluetooth and MMS, is not a big threat because it is too fussy about what it can infect.
The first real mobile phone virus, which was found in the wild and could replicate on its own, was discovered almost two years ago.
Nokia has entered a pact with Symantec to help secure its mobile phones from viruses that target certain kinds of handsets.
Security experts have said that enterprises will not have to worry about a large scale virus outbreak affecting their 'smart' mobile phones and PDAs for another 18 months. However, after that, even antivirus software is unlikely to help.
