iVirus really showcases what we all know about the iPhone - that it is the most sophisticated mobile platform currently available.  iVirus is an entertaining application that plays a fun prank on the unsuspecting user : on startup, the user is presented with the standard/default icons seen on most iphones. Any icon that is pressed in the normal looking screen suddenly is affected by a gravitational force that is manipulated by the iPhone's accelerometer !

Custom screen shots can be used or select from one of eight themes that come with the application. 

Icons bounce off each other as they try to come to rest. Icons can be sent back to their home/start locations by shaking the iphone.  One shake and all the icons return to their home locations.

You can exit the application at any time by pressing the home button (default functionality on the iphone to exit applications).
