Exclamation Axim Virus!!

Today, after I updated my Norton Antivirus Corporate Edition (NAV), and restarted my computer, NAV discovered a virus called axmsetup.845.exe. It called it a Trojan.Emcodec. Further discussion is warranted if we are to "just download" items for our PDA, with the concept of obtaining viruses discounted.

I Googled it, and found nothing.

So unless I misunderstand, the virus infects x86 (PC) systems and not Windows Mobile devices, right?
