The iPhone Elite Dev Team Virginizer is a tool designed to repair the changes that anySIM 1.0x and others (including iUnlock and hardware unlocks) did. When 1.0.2 was unlocked, the seczone became corrupted, causing a "brick" when upgraded to 1.1.1. The virginizer reflashed the 1.0.2 baseband and repaired the seczone. Because of this, your phone will be relocked, allowing a safe update to 1.1.1 and unlock with anySIM 1.1.
