Hi,
can anyone please telll me if there's such thing as a virus for a T610. I want to install some games I found for free on my t610 dot com, but am worried that they may contain viruses. Is this possible?
I had a T610 and installed some themes that I found and shortly afterwards, the phone refused to switch on. It's probably just a coincidence, but I thought I'd check.
Thanks.

No, so far T610 has been pretty much virus free
As a matter of fact, I havn't heard of any JAVA/mophun viruses. I doubt it's possible. (at least not on the T610 implementation)

You are a funny man, kid. :-) Virus on a phone can be only for few people (the stupid one) and it will have the form of SMS or MMS and it would have message like this: This is a virus. Please format your phone and delete your contacts. Thank you. Your virus. :-D:-D:-D:-):-) so no virus on phones.

If you have a look on geribaldi's wap site under the tools and tests there is a virus protector which claims to protect your phone against wap virus'. I have not tried it though. Maybe geribaldi can shed some light on the matter. Sorry i cant provide a link from my phone

Eek! I've had that virus. I deleted all of my contacts and everything.
I couldn't find my contacts after that.
