First iPhone Virus: RICK ROLL BACKGROUND VIRUS!?

IOkay, this is taken from Yahoo!. LOL

The worm, known as Ikee, changes the device's wallpaper to a picture of '80s singer Rick Astley with the words "Ikee is never gonna give you up" — a reference to Astley's biggest chart hit — before trying to spread to other devices.

Several Australian users were affected, according to Internet security company Sophos. It has not spread beyond Australia.

Ikee can infect only iPhones that have been unlocked or "jailbroken" a practice that gives users the freedom to access the device remotely, share files and use with any SIM card.

IPhones purchased through regular channels on a plan with an authorized SIM are not at risk. The virus is not destructive and does not compromise any data contained on the iPhone.

Ikee is the work of 21-year-old Sydney web designer and hobby programmer Ashley Towns, who revealed himself as the worm's author on Twitter under the name Ikeeex.

Mr Towns said he created the Ikee virus to create awareness about having a secure password to protect your personal information.)

@halo3fn36 iff you really dont know what SSH'ing into your iPod touch or iPhone, then you dont have a sungle clue of what jailbreaking is or any of its benifits.

[johnathon124]

it only happens to jailbroken iphones and ipod though ... and it only happens to them if you leave SSH on ..

Without jailbreaking, nothing much can happen. unless ...
