The trojan installation package contains false application installation information that causes legitimate third party applications to be removed if the trojan is uninstalled from the iPhone.

The first warnings about the trojan were published on the following site: http://www.modmyifone.com/
Thread: http://www.modmyifone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=24323

Web sites hosting the malicious package were taken offline soon after the discovery of the low-risk threat.

Hopefully this serves as a warning for those who have opened their iPhones using a security hole in the system and then installing unverified software without a second thought to what they are doing.
