I think my iPhone 3G may have a virus...

So today in class i was moving some apps and saw that there were blank spaces with the little black x's to delete.

i was like wtf.

so i clicked on it and it took me to Design by 999 - Frank M. Jr.

scrnshts

Click the image to open in full size.

Looks perfectly fine right?

Click the image to open in full size.

Hold on an icon for a few secs, then this happens...

Click the image to open in full size.

Then, no matter how much i delete these they keep on coming back!

Click the image to open in full size.

this is where every link takes me to...

Design by 999 - Frank M. Jr.
and this is all thats on the screen.


i don't know why this is happening, someone please help me because the last thing i want is a virus or a brick..

am i retarded or something??

A bunch of people have been talking about this. THere are blank app appliations out there but it seems you never installed it. What have you installed recently? Have you updated something? Either way don;t fret, a restore will kill any virus you may have.

I actually noticed (just now) I had these icons too, along with the install 10 blank apps that I did in Crydia. My feeling is that it is within a cydia app we are installing. My most recent apps in cydia are BlackBerry Impression theme and CallMe (update).

I have not yet looked at the difference in the folders. Where are they located in the theme? Kinda silly that they included these... if you have more tha one page you would need more than these 4 anyway (and by default you will have more than one page)

Thanks guys..

so basically,
either remove the Blackberry theme (which i have and updated today)

or if i want to keep the theme (which i dont care for)
navigate to /private/var/mobile/Library/WebClips and delete it?

thanks again =]]]]

UPDATE

I uninstalled Blackberry Impressions and then deleted Webclips in MobileFinder and did a reboot.

everything is A-OK
thanks everyone
