Is it possible that your cell can get infected with a virus or hi-jacked by a hacker :?: My phone sends weird multimedia mms's (or it at least try to) every Thursday to Sunday :evil: It contains topics such as "norton anti-virus update", "DVI Codec", "Free porn" ect...

Would it help to have it "formated" and reinstall the software :?: or will a new sim do the trick :?:

Had the same thing on my S60 (6600)
You had a "unknown" blustooth message come in - that infected your system. You can dload mobile fsercure to remove it - - ti however make sure that you mms settings are deleted off your phone, because it cost me R1.00 per mms, and I have over 300 ppl on my phonebook

Fsecure is expensive!! Rather download Norton (Norton for phone is the 2nd best anti virus) from http://dvd8.wen.ru and run a scan.

You mean thoes removal tools?

It sounds like the commwarrior virus.

Norton doesnt need to be registed (My version on my site) it will remove that virus. It also has a firewall :wink:

Sony Ericssons have PATHETIC cameras!! They distort and look as if there is too much noise! Otherwise they arent bad phones.

okay went through gsmarena and they dont have a nokia model called the S60, so what is your model again?

with regards to pics being taken with cell phones if you zoom with any phone, it is doing a digital zoom unless you have the phones with a optical zoom. thats the reason why they look bad when using zoom. any phone with digital zoom will look bad.
