Well, I just switched to IPhone from HTC, and so far im loving it . and wow in few days i know alooooot ( well atleast something lol). ok you all might be aware of the iphone worm Ikee . and this morning my friend nazreen , an iphone craze lolz,  sent me a message saying her phone got infected with Ikee, and she gets Rick Astley’s Ugly face on her mobile when she calls someone.  so  after some googling i found a solution.  thanks to the person who actually found it.

The ikee worm has spread to jailbroken iPhones in Australia running SSH with the default root password. Follow the steps below to remove all ikee code and prevent Rick Astley from reappearing on your lock screen:

First of all install “Cydia mobile terminal” for iphone. you can download it here or through cydia. and then follow these steps.
