Malicious code detected in the Installer

It has come to my attention that the people responsible for the JMCO source jmwiki.com have internially created a malicious source with the sole intention of mucking up people's iPhones.

This source adds an app in installer that pretends to be an update of erica's utilities. The app appears in installer as 113 prep.

Once installed all this app does is it says "shoes." When uninstalled this app removes a lot of files from the /bin directory on the iphone, breaking valid apps like sendfile and other erica utilities.

ModMyiFone recommends that you DO NOT install 113 prep. We further recommend that you abandon the use of the JMCO source and remove it from your installer app.

It is a shame to see that people in our community are set on causing problems for others, their actions are not admirable.

Help us get out the word to everyone as quickly as possible and Digg This

Edit: You might note that when I say your bin directory i of course am talking about var/root/bin/ --- Also this source is installed when you instal the Blaze Source.

Will be updating a list of things this messes up

* Erica's Utilities
* OpenSSH
* Launcher
* Doom
