    This is just your typical company preying on paranoia. The anti-theft product you mention isn’t even theirs. Viruse scan for Blackberry is silly and just a way for them to make more money. In fact many people have gone so far as to say that you do not need anti-virus on your computer, if you locked the device down as you should and didn’t open suspicious attachments.

    I suppose mail pushed to our berries could contain malware or viruses. Unless the “push” precludes it.
    Do RIM’s servers and system have anything in place for this?

    I’m agreeing with the sentiment. I think this is simply Verizon and Mcafee teaming up to monetize yet another aspect of Blackberry. I have searched and searched and can find nothing about a successfuly Blackberry virus/trojan. Even in some particularly shady places I looked.

    There are no virus threats on the Palm platform. There are no virus threats on the BB platform either. Just another way for the virus companies to separate you from your hard-earned cash, if you are phoebic about these things.

    I havent used a PC AV progam in years and have enjoyed virus-free, fast performance. I suspect that this mobile AV will also slow down the device as it protects you from nothing.

    @fajar:
    Why? You have evidence of a virus that works on a 8320?

    @ade:
    Try going into Options…Themes and Restore Theme Defaults. I had “lost” my “Options” icon and that brought it back. Luck!

    @Nonso:
    Sounds like a memory leak. Do a battery pull.
