    Yes, you are absolutely right. My advice is, install an antivirus software to computer(s), update the virus database, DISCONNECT(unplug the cable) any network connection (Internet/Intranet) to stop the malware spreading, and do a full scan with removable drives(usb stick, camera, etc.) attached.

    so conclusion of this thread is: standard phone can't have viruses

    i asked this in first place because there was a sterotype in my school that normal phones can get viruses
