Cellphone and PDA Beware sa SM turn off ur bluetooth

[DrE]

---

its real smart when you accept unknown files from unknown senders. that's just dumb.

i keep my bluetooth on all the time to connect to my equipments...
set it to HIDDEN or NONE DISCOVERABLE mode para walay samok...

and why would you open the file...delete it if you receive it...or reject it before accepting it...simple!
it wont harm your phone if you DONT OPEN the file...

or get a newer phone. n73 and up di naman na mu work ang viruses.
n70 and lower raman ang ma-apekohan sa virus.

pocket pc doesnt get affected by sis programs/virus...

My put:

1. A .sis file is not a virus. It is comparable to that of a zip installer in windows, only that it is designed for Symbian fones. It is an acronym which stands for Symbian Installation Source. Dili ni siya application so you cannot consider this a virus. Probably it contained a .APP file nga nag-self install sa imong phone after you clicked on accept.

Let me repeat: "After you clicked on accept."

2. The main reason why bluetooth has been granted equipped with permission capabilities is to avoid malicious software and malware fron connecting to your phone. Wala man cguroy such thing as autorun sa phones... unlike sa Windows Operating System nga ining paslak nimo sa USB Flashdrive kay auto-copy ang mga virus mao nga paspas kaayo mo spread. IOW, don't accept files from strangers coz the tendency is, you get something suspicious.

3. PDAs, especially Windows Mobiles, do not run .sis or .app files. They are designed for the Windows platform so ALL files are in sync, running on either formats the Windows Operating System runs on. Some PDAs could even browse other cellphones files WITHOUT having to obtain permissions from the owners, just as long as their bluetooths are switched on. But again, they could only browse without permission, not SEND FILE WITHOUT PERMISSION.
