Antivirus

Do I need to install an Antivirus on my Windows Mobile 6.5 smart phone? If so, then what would be the best program. Thanks ;)

I personally do not think it is worth it at the moment.

Unlike Symbian there are no Windows Mobile virus around as yet. There has been two java based test samples to created in the lab for testing but that is about it for now.

Simple security rules, only install software from known sources just because you can get it for "free" may mean it has also been altered in some way.

Apart from that save your money and do regular backups of your device.

If you ever did get some form or virus just do a hard reset and reinstall everything, not a major deal as such.
