In 2005, the virus name Comm-Warrior appeared which had the ability to replicate itself through Multi Messaging services (MMS) and text messages with a picture or audio or video file in it.
Prior to Comm-Warrior, in 2004, viruses were transmitted through Bluetooth and were confined to small areas and devices.
