Question

I'm using the Dopod D810. Is it necessary to install an anti-virus program on the PDA-phone? Which one will you recommend?

As of now, there aren't many viruses targeted at the Windows Mobile platform. Those that exist, don't really spread and aren't dangerous. Even if you get a virus in an email attachment, those are usually meant to target Windows on desktops and won't affect your D810.

If you really want to install Anti-virus software on your PDA-phone, there are options out there. You can do a quick Google search to find them. I won't be recommending any because I don’t think they are necessary.
