Quick Fix for iPhone "ikee is never going to give you up" SSH virus

Step 1. Change the default mobile and root password for your iphone SSH to become immune to this virus once for all ! The tutorial for this is here: http://www.redmondpie.com/how-to-secure-your-jailbroken-iphone-from-ssh-hack-9140084/

Step 2. Download mobileterminal through Cydia or use Iphone Explorer (www.iphone-explorer.com) for Windows

Step 3. Logon as Root and delete below files:
(1). /var/mobile/Library/LockBackground.jpg
(2). /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.ikey.bbot.plist
(3). /bin/poc-bbot
(4). /bin/sshpass
(5). /var/log/youcanbeclosertogod.jpg

Step 4. Set up your favourite wallpaper and reboot your device.

P.S. For those who use mobileterminal to delete files and not familiar with linux command,

a. the command for deleting files is "rm". Example, rm /var/mobile/Library/LockBackground.jpg

b. the linux path is case-sensitive, so make sure you type the path correctly.
