Two weeks after the update that disabled iPhones that had been unlocked or had third-party applications installed, hackers have struck back with a new method for unlocking the popular device.
Apple's iPhone has been on the market for less than a month, but already researchers have claimed to have hacked the popular device.
US security consultant, Rick Farrow, has used H D Moore's security testing tool, Metasploit, to crack the iPhone, which allows a hacker to do anything the iPhone user can, but remotely.
An Australian iPhone hacker claims to be the first person to have successfully unlocked Apple's mobile phone so it can be used on any network.

But like most decisions based on emotion, buying one may not be the smartest thing to do at least, not yet.
Security researchers worked overtime in 2007, which turned out to be a nightmare for software vendors from day one.
HTC's Shift is yet another UMPC and another white elephant to add to the pile. By trying to be everything to everyone, the Shift succeeds at being nothing to anyone.
The i-mate Ultimate 9502 is the larger sibling of the i-mate 8502, and shares the honour of being Australia's first HSUPA phone. While we believe this phone is in the same league as a BlackBerry or the iPhone, be wary of Telstra's promised internet speeds.
