AirScanner mobile has a firewall and virus scanner that I trialed a few months ago. Not free though. There are apparently very few threats targeting Windows mobile, so I removed it.
thank you I'll give it a try.

> There are apparently very few threats

that was my other question. I realized that I already have quite a lot of
personal info on the phone while it is exposed to the internet
as a non -firewalled PC...

I'm not an expert in this stuff,
so I'm not sure how dangerous it is ..

so you are saying that hackers in principle cannot retrieve the files from the windows mobile phone remotely, or simply that they do not yet explore actively such an opportunity, so that the changes to get hacked are small?
