I am receiving a 6680 today. It's my first smartphone, so I am a bit
worried about security.
Is it a good idea to install some kind of resident anti-virus /
firewall / spyware application?
If so, what do you reccommend? (free if possible please!) - I am new to
Symbian OS phones, and not really clued up on the security they
provide, if any.

Symantec do a Symbian Security suite
And Kaspersky do something too...
I am unsure how you could get infected, unless you leave your phone
bluetoothing all day long.
I am sure somebody will correct me on this!

Just checked the nokia 6680 website, they have a download for F-Secure

F secure is a one month trial. Not sure how much it costs after that.
