Hi,

I have recently purchased the 5800 which is my first mobile which has the wi-fi feature. I would like to ask if there are any security measures we should be taken before browsing the net from a mobile phone. The reason i am asking this is because so far i have always browsed the net via pc and i am aware that one needs a firewall/antivirus/anti-spyware etc ... so i am not sure if a mobile phone requires any similar software.

Thank you for any feedback.

Hi, nope, nothing is required.

Nothing is required. No viruses or spyware will infect your phone by just browsing the net (Wi-Fi or GPRS).

Any malicious application have to be deliberately installed and acknowledged by the phone user.

Thank you very much for your prompt replies.
