Vnunet.com is reporting today about a new mobile virus using an older infection technique to infect Windows Mobile users.
This so-called ‘companion virus’ is attacking users by assuming the identity of an existing file and moving the old file to a different location in your device’s storage. The virus then runs itself when the original file is called, often loading the displaced file after the virus code has been executed.
Researchers at McAfee have examined the virus and are surprised to find this particular infection technique still being used. Researcher Jimmy Shah had this to say:
This was a bit odd since companion viruses used to be more popular in the days of DOS and we haven’t seen too many on newer platforms.

Helio CEO Sky Dayton has stepped down from his position as CEO to become chairman of the board, while president and COO Wohnee Sull will replace his position, reports mocoNews.
No stranger to the position of CEO, having been CEO of the SK Telecom/Earthlink venture as well as other positions, Dayton often steps down from day-to-day managing after several years, according to Helio’s press release. “For the past three years, Wonhee and I have worked closely to build Helio, which has seen record growth, introduced over a dozen U.S. industry firsts and established itself in the marketplace as a one-of-a-kind premium mobile service,” said Dayton. “Helio has reached a point in its development where I feel the timing is right for this change.”
