use f-secure. but the thing bout f-secure is, it only gives you a month for free updates. You could extend it by paying for new subscriptions though but for me, anti-virus aren't really necessary on our N73 as it cannot in any way target the OS and destroy it directly. You must take note that applications for N73 undergo signing process, thus making it much more secure than of the previous versions. If ever there would be a virus that could enter your phone, one great harm that it can do to your phone is to slow it down but it is a fact that it couldn't trigger your OS. Even I myself don't use anti-virus applications, it takes too much of your ram and free space, it slows down your phone a lil bit too. Just be vigilant mate... No virus could be tough enough to pass through a human-firewalled N73

yes they do but they doesn't necessarily pose as major threats. it's on how you apply vigilance on your phones that matter

try googling it. you'll see lots of sites offering free netquin applications though most of them come with no new virus definitions. you can also download it DIRECT from netquin's website. Just google it.
