Someone on here mentioned they don't run AV on their PDA, what's your opinion about that? What is the danger? In other words are there that many threats out there being written for PDA? I'm sure it's only a matter of time before they are.
I'm not sure if there are any threats specific to PPC at this point, but as you say, "it's just a matter of time." With the large number of PPC users that are around, IMHO no corporate network should be without SAV-CE with the PDA module included. Not using AV on PDA's connected to the network opens up a huge opportunity to compromise the network. We don't have the PDA module yet, but I'm hoping for it soon. SAV-CE is MANDATORY on all other machines on our network. Period. PDA's should be treated the same, IMHO.
