Kaspersky Lab has released a beta version of mobile antivirus software for smart phones using the Symbian OS, it announced this week.

The product, called Kaspersky Anti-Virus Mobile 2.0, can stop suspicious programs before they infect the phone and scan devices for malicious software, the company said.

Kaspersky is one of many vendors pushing mobile antivirus products to market as malicious software increasingly targets those devices.

The company said its software is equipped to blocked suspect SMS (Short Message Service) and MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) messages. The product uses a so-called "blacklist" to compare messages and block spam.
