Re: Ppc Viruses Are Coming!!!!
Naw.. I think the best protection is contacts/calendar/tasks sync, and keeping your storage card backed'up. Heck, with all of the testing I do, I could get a virus and it would only be on my device for a matter of minutes. That is just if it took me that long to realize that something was wrong. Seriously, why can't they make an anti-bug on-demand scanner? Seems that would be much more helpful... You are 100x more likely going to have problems due to a bug, than you having a virus problem.

However, do these anti-virus programs scan and detect only Windows Mobile written viruses, or anything? If they don't do it all, it is pointless. A computer virus, IMO, is much more harmful than a WM virus.
