How To Remove Spyware Pushed to BlackBerry Users

blackberry-storm SMobile Systems Releases Solution to Remove Spyware Pushed to BlackBerry Users. Etisalat Users in UAE Receive BlackBerry Update That Includes E-mail Sniffing Spyware.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 15 /PRNewswire/ -- SMobile Systems, the leading provider of security solutions for mobile phones and maker of the only Antivirus and AntiSpyware applications in the world for BlackBerry devices, has released a solution for the recent spyware-laden update sent out to BlackBerry users on the Etisalat network in the United Arab Emirates.

The BlackBerry Spyware, which intercepts email and drains battery life quickly, was pushed as an update to BlackBerry's on the Etisalat network. Sent to users as a wide-area protocol (WAP) message, the Java file intercepts data and sends a copy to a server without the user's knowledge.

Joseph W. Hagin, Vice Chairman of SMobile and former White House Deputy Chief of Staff who first introduced smartphones into the White House noted, "We are entering the time period that everyone knew would come; when smartphones are becoming infected just as we've seen with personal computers."

"This incident is yet another example of why all smartphones need to be protected with security software, such as Antivirus and firewall," said Neil Book, president of SMobile Systems.

Daniel V. Hoffman, chief technology officer of SMobile, and author of the book "Blackjacking: Security Threats to Blackberry, PDAs, and Cell Phones in the Enterprise" added, "The truth about smartphones is that they are used in the same manner as personal computers and are susceptible to the same threats. It has become clear that smartphone users need to proactively ensure their devices contain the necessary security software to protect not only their e-mail and messaging data, but also to protect their identity and the integrity of their mobile financial transactions."

BlackBerry and other smartphone users can easily go to smobilesystems.com to purchase SMobile Security Shield or Anti-Theft and Identity Protection software to remove this and other BlackBerry and smartphone spyware threats. Existing SMobile customers need only ensure their software contains the latest security updates to receive protection.
