My iphone makes a strange noise sometimes while I am using Safari. It will make a "boing" type of sound that is not a notification sound. I am concerned that it might be some type of virus or worm.
iPhone 4, iOS 5.0.1
Not sure where this sound is coming from but the only way your iPhone would have a virus or worm would be if you hacked your iPhone with the cutsie term used for that being "jailbreak", and even then it wouldn't be a virus or worm since none exist for iOS.
Hacking an iPhone removes all the built-in security included with iOS allowing for downloading unofficial apps from untrusted sources. Such unofficial apps can include malware, but not a worm or virus with the definition of a virus including the ability to spread from device to device without the infected user's knowledge and there aren't any that affect iOS.
