Thanks Karl and Jan, Yes tried to reset the settings but now this Nokia phone also won't accept the security code I originally entered, so, won't let me reset the factory settings. Basically I think it's bricked. Now that I've bought the Samsung Galaxy, mainly because of this problem, I'm just chucking this older Nokia. Just hope the sim card is not carrying this malware, but, it's a different o/s so one would guess Android should be immune to any Nokia virus. I hope. Guys, DO NOT get a phone virus. Computer viruses aren't deadly, but phones seem to be too new for an adequate app protection, in my recent experience. Even Wikipedia says major antivirus apps can't over-ride Android sandboxes. (See, the last sentence of my last Link post) Unless anyone knows of any new Android antivirus/antimalware app, that can over-ride Android sandbox system functioning, and protect the whole phone?
