Anti-Virus and Firewall
      #312751 - Mon Oct 30 2006 09:38 AM

Everyone knows how foolish it is to connect to the internet via your PC without Anti-Virus and Firewall etc.

I was just wondering how dangerous is it to access the internet through a mobile phone?

I have a mobile that is able to download e-mails and surf the internet, however it has no Anti-Virus or Firewall etc (That I know of). Is it safe to use this function?

Good point. My mobile has Internet access too, which I rarely use. So far I haven't had any problems, but I'd like to know a bit more about mobile security too.
