Beware Of Raila Odinga Virus On Your Symbian Phones! by just2nice(m): 7:25pm On Sep 24, 2008
There is a virus that is called Raila Odinga that is attacking PC and symbian phones at present now.When it attacks your symbian phones,it will be zapping your credit like crazy as soon as you make a call.I loaded 200 naira credit and when I made a call,barely 15 seconds later,I was now hearing a message that my account balance was low and that I should recharge.When I checked my credit,I found 0.00 naira in less than 15 seconds!
So,be careful with recieving files from other symbian phones as the mobile version of the virus attaches itself to applications that you recieved through phone and computer.For now,the only protection{this is what I use to disinfect my phone} is installing F-secure anti-virus and update it with the latest anti-virus definition.
Be fore-warned!

Oga moderator ,na so we see am grin .This Raila Odinga virus attack was really terrible in my school<Delta state university,abraka> as I know of 7 of my friends who also contracted the virus on their symbian phones.It was F-secure that came to our rescue as it was already spreading like a wildfire in this university town.Guys,when you notice it,just download this F-secure,update it via wap and scan it.This shud do the trick.My Kaspersky could not even detect it,talk less of deleting it,so just be alert.

That a Raiala Odinga zaps credit, hmmm i dont want to believe that.A virus is not capable of that.If its possible can somebody explain that to me.At least you are charged per second or minute.

These days av not been receiving nor downloading.
@femzy,
you just heard just2nice say that 7 of his friends had it. It's obvious that's what the virus do.
@nairalanders,
don't you think that the network guys are behind the release of this virus. They must have paid specialists to create it.

Femzy,the havoc viruses wreck differs from one another.For instance,'Odinga' attacks your credit,other viruses may go for your bluetooth or wap and all that.@holyrule.There is a PC 'odinga' at present now too,so I believe it is the handiwork of some malicious programmers who attached it to files downloaded from the internet and from which it is now spreading.I don't think it is the work of network people smiley
Re: Beware Of Raila Odinga Virus On Your Symbian Phones! by Holyrule(m): 10:03pm On Sep 25, 2008
On a second thought.
I think this is just network problem or their handwork. There are people i know who don't download at all,business men n yet they complain of this problem.
Confused here! undecided
