Re: Want to beta test new security software?

Sorry to say but no one is writing viruses for windows mobile. 2 things preventing it. The processor and the kernal of windows mobile.

And there really isnt anything to attack. Every boot system files are checked and rewritten from the rom if they are corrupt.

Malware is another issue alltogether. I have seen a few programs that people download and contain certain mms features or data mining that sends that information to an ip address or in an mms to a number.

The virus and malware part is a waste of money. Symantec/Norton used to make a virus scanner a while ago but discontinued it.
