weird blank bookmark icons

**nd0** · 10-06-2008, 10:04 PM

i have no idea what happened but now whenever i load any theme, there's 4 blank bookmark icons at the bottom of my homescreen that redirect to htt://dezign999.com. i have no idea which theme did this but does anyone know how to fix this? it's annoying to have to delete those things every time.

This been a common issue lately.

Delete all the apps you downloaded recently.

Delete all the untrusted sources.

Re-download from trusted sources - iclarified, mmi, BB, etc..

I am having the same issue and I am currently investigating it.

Its from the blackberry theme there webclips for the top row of the theme so you dont have to dl the blank icons,

/private/var/mobile/Library/WebClips

already been posted http://www.modmyi.com/forums/general...ave-virus.html

LOL You beat me to it. I was just about to say I had a hunch it was from the blackberry theme. I was wondering how exactly they got that top row to be invisible like that.

It's just a permissions error from the BlackBerry theme, /var/mobile/Library/WebClips is set to 555 or so, so mobile (user you are on SpringBoard) can't delete them. When you respring, they re appear.

I used mobilfinder and just deleted the webclips and deleted the blank icons from the phone and did a resping and there gone

**Git** · 10-07-2008, 07:27 PM

Since MobileFinder accesses as root, that would work as well.

Hey ya i have the same issue i have like 4 full pages of these stupid icons that say bookmark when u delete them. Any ideas on how to fix this problem

Sounds like web clips from an iNav type theme that was installed. SSH into Private/Var/Mobile/Library/Webclips and delete them there.
