During October F-Secure's viruslab analyzed following new virus samples:
Mopofeli.A is an SMS spying tool that runs on Symbian Series 60
Second Edition devices. When Mopofeli.A is installed on the device,
it will forward all incoming and outgoing SMS messages to an
external number specified within the software's configuration file.
When active on the device, Mopofeli.A hides it's process so that it
is not visible in the Symbian process list.
