Usually if you have a fone cable, attach the fone to the comp and run your antiviruses, making sure it will clean all drives, though there is specific software for fones, thats why you need to tell us, how the fone is behaving.

2ndly - is the guy using a downloaded browser, like mini opera??
I read from a blog that mobile phones running on Symbian 6+ really don't have virus issues and the anti-viruses don't really do anything. Most of the time the problems are not due to viruses but rather bugs within the OS. I really don't know how true that is, my phone runs Kaspersky Mobile edition which has lots of anti-spam options and you can even delete all personal data just by sending a secret code to your phone. If it gets stolen, it sends you the number for the new sim card to you and all you need to do is send an sms to that number to empty your phone and even lock it!!
