As far as I am aware mate it is not advisable to run anti virus on any phone as it will slow down the running of the phone due to the amount of resources it requires to run!

i have F secure, its on all the time in the background of my n73, never had a virus, but sometimes its good to have some form of virus protection.
its not just bluetooth u have to be aware of alex, you have to be aware of third party applications you might install on your N95, last thing you want is download an application and it having a virus in it.

its amazing actually, only bug I'v noticed is after filimg a short(30 secs) video clip and after it saves i press play in like the camera app(not exiting the camera and going to RealPlayer) and once i do press play it opens real player then gives the message General:phone memory full, close one or more applications and try again, although only app running is camera and now i guess real player and also i have over 60 meg mem left in the phone :S
well when i find a USB cable for it and get a memory card i'm going to debrand it and update to newest firmware as i have like 10.0.0.018 or something which is qute an early one so upgrading should solve the problem
