Rickroll'd By Your iPhone?

Rickrolled
Say it ain't so! The first virus written for the iPhone is currently making the rounds in Australia. But here's the catch, according to The Security Fix over at WaPo:

The contagion, dubbed "Ikee," spreads only among iPhones that have been "jailbroken," a process that removes the device's software protection mechanisms and allows iPhone users to install applications that are not available through Apple's official App Store.

BTW - if you've never been rickrolled, you can find more information on that phenomenon here and here. Also here.

If you wanna see Rick Astley's reaction to 'rickrolling' in general, check out the clip below, at about the 1 minute mark.
