I have a remote user who stated they were getting error 67 pretty often on a Sprint CDMA Hero.

I need to state remote user, as he lives in the other side of the country and I have no physical access to his device.

Then they also stated that they were able to use the browser for a few minutes, then they would be automatically directed to a URL that would display a message of "You do not have a license key necessary to browse the Internet-click here"

Clicking on the link will display a Paypal payment screen.

I had the user run a virus scan, he had AVG antivirus pro. IT found an 'advertisement hi-jacker'

To this point the user claims he never attached the phone to his computer, so we thought he was through a download on the phone.

He had the virus program clear the hi jacaker and the error 67 messages stops and he reported no more re-directs, everything seemed fine.

However, a few days later he attached the phone to his computer and claims that caused damage to his operating system- essentially the SD card still had some sort of malware and/or virus on it that spread to his computer. I don't know what files he moved around from or to the SD card.

I just wanted to know if there was more information on this; I've tried searching but haven't found anything concrete. Thank you.

 

My thought is that its an Android 2.1 device, and as such apps cannot be loaded onto the SD card. So, is it even possible that by simply using the browser that the SD card could become infected? I suppose saving a file could do it.........

 

It was all on the mobile device; claims to not have attached the phone until after cleaning it with AVG Mobile version
