Posted: Wed Mar 01, 2006 5:57 am Post subject: Trojan-SMS.J2ME.RedBrowser.a

This Trojan infects mobile phones running Java (J2ME) and spreads in the guise of a program called "RedBrowser", which allegedly enables the user to visit WAP sites without using a WAP connection.

Quote:

The Trojan horse was first spotted by Moscow-based Kaspersky Lab, which calls it RedBrowser. The malicious code poses as an application that promises people the ability to visit mobile Internet sites using text messages instead of an actual Net connection, Kaspersky said in a statement Tuesday.
