Exclamation Virus!?!

I went online and loaded the downloaded the cab file for agile messenger.
I put the cab file on my sd card.
But didn't have the chance to initiate it.
All of my applications have disappeared.
The only item on my today screen dropdown is "coldinit"
Sounds like a virus name to me.
I can access the screen to change the brightness of my screen
and manage my power usuage.
Thats it!!

I have soft reset several times
And I have removed my sd card which had the cab file on it.

If you didn't even execute it, it's unlikely to be directly related to Agile.

Can you be a bit clearer on what happened. Step by step.

Did the applications disappear as soon as you inserted the SD card? What exactly happened?

It's not a virus I don't think, it's part of the boot process.

I never actually removed the SD card.
I Dragged and dropped the CAB file onto the SD card via Activesync.

I ended up doing a hard reset. I have my backups on the SD card.
So I guess I will be spending the day reloading programs.
