Redbroswer

A.K.A. na
Classification: Trojan
Platform: J2ME
File Type: Java midlet
File Size: 54 kb
Known Variants :
Redbrowser.jar    

Synopsis:

Redbrowser.A is a J2ME based Java midlet that pretends to be a WAP browser that offers free WAP web browsing by using free SMS to send/retrieve data.  If the user installs Redbrowser, it will actually send SMS messages to a single, specific number which may cause SMS fees to the user.

 
 
     

Since Redbrowser's text is in Russian, it effectively is only a threat in Russian speaking countries since non-Russian speakers will not be able to understand Redbrowser's claim of free SMS messages, and thus install it.
