Common viruses like Cabir Infects mobile phones running on Symbian OS (Nokia N series which runs on Symbian). When your phone is affected by this virus you will see the message 'Caribe' is displayed on the phone's display and is displayed every time the phone is turned on. The worm then attempts to spread to other phones in the area using wireless Bluetooth signals.
