Good to see even hackers are commenting their code.

I know a lot of people don't like Apples control, but here I suppose is a good example were it pays off. Really the heading of this article should have said -> "Jailbroken IPhone suffers first Worm attack".

Now I wonder how Android is going to fair in the future, especially as it apparently more open.

antivirus would be pretty useless on an iphone because there's no background running lol

@Keith: could be a little like IE and FF open source quicker to patch than from a slow company

@Jay, That's the whole point, an anti-virus is not needed on the IPhone wasting battery and CPU usage. Yeah, you don't have as much freedom with a locked IPhone, but at least you don't need to worry about getting an Anti-Virus app for it.

@Gordon It's RTFM not RTRM as in your quote :) I'm sure everyone knows what it means (or can easily find out) so I won't elucidate. :P
