Third, I could post a cab right now saying its the best antivirus available, name it Norton, and you'd install it, having it run on every boot and send me your contact list.
Fourth, you can completely reset your device to a perfect state in less than 2 minutes and 5 key presses.
Fifth, the phone's battery is bad enough to not run a constant scanner in the background.

You can do whatever you want, but I would never pay for something that is worthless in my opinion. The PPC software subforum has a few threads with many links, I'd look there
Thank you for the explanation !

Re: Antivirus for Touch Diamond

Hey, some software companies need to make money. People bought Chia pets, so why not antivirus software of PPC's as well?
