Which virus can infect N96 to cause restarts

hi mates,
can any one suggest which virus can infect an N96 phone to cause restarts, OS Freez etc. during calls or while on idle mode?
thanks

Doubt there is one. There just aren't mobile viruses out in the wild much. While this might change in the future for high visibility/ big market share phones as more and more people go mobile, it hasn't happened yet and is unlikely to target Symbian.

I'd look for some other cause or factory reset.

This sound like you have maybe your mass memory to full.
If you go over 3/4 full the N96 plays up.

I use the Phone memory for contacts SMS ans MMS. I use my mass memory for all my installed applications and my SD card for my videos and music.

If you go into Menu ~ tools ~ File Mgr and you will see your memory state.
