How do i get rid of a iPhone Virus?

I have now for the second time a strange virus on my Iphone 5, iOs 6.1.4 It opens randomly the pre-installed apple apps like Newsstand, Settings, Notes etc. and changes settings there. The first time I had it, it sent a message with "awkward" to one of my contacts. This time it changed my wallpaper. I haven't jailbreaked my iPhone. How do I get rid of this ****? It seems to help to switch the Wifi off. A reset of the settings did work the first time but not now. Thanks for your help!

iPhone 5, iOS 6.1.4

No, you really don't.

4 years ago, when SuperNMY posted, 6.1.3 was the latest version of iOS for the iPhone 5.

Surprising that something that didn't exist 4 years ago still doesn't exist?
