Techtree is reporting that Cabir is in the wild in Mumbai, India's most populous city.
The article mentions a "Nokia Priority Dealer" offering to clean an infected phone for 850 rupees. The exchange rate is approximately 1 US dollar to 45 Indian rupees. About $18-$19 a phone. Adjusting for cost of living ($ * 5) gives an effective rate of US$90-$95. It's never cheap to live in the big city.
Speaking of viruses written by 29a members , The Register is reporting that Benny of the same group has turned over a new leaf and has joined the ranks of the AV community. An interesting situation.
