Does anyone use a virus program for the 6800? If so which one? So far I know that f-secure.com works on the mogul since I have been using it for 30 days free, but it's a bit pricey. Thanks for your assistance.

You should say 'anti-virus' program, not virus program.
For a sec,I thought you want to infect your PPC (by the title)

This has been posted many, many times. Almost noone uses virus protection software for their PPCs because there are about 2 virus out there only, out of which 1 was designed just to prove they could be designed.

So as of right now most people see virus protection software for PPCs as a waste of memory, money and resources.

Thanks for your advice, but as smartphones become more popular I think we will see more attacks. And downloading email and surfing the web will make it a problem in the future especially for those of us who use Wi-Fi and not our service providers. Just want to be ahead of the curve.
