Not needed on the axim... but AV is (and should be) on every PC it syncs with

cheers... it's from a long running radio show called "I'm sorry I haven't a clue"... every week the host signs off with something like that. I think I have a list of them somewhere for when i get bored with it.

None for me. From what I have read in other posts, they do not seem to be necessary.

None!

AV and firewalls are to the PocketPC as baby on board signs are to cars.

I have to agree - any PC that I sync with has a firewall and antivirus. No exceptions.

declind

ZERO here too! Don't see any need as home-net is protected.

greytrev

none.

the only virii created for the pocket pc have been proof of concept tests - that is, proving it can be done. there are currently no real virus threats.

its amusing one av company is charging for AV for the pocketpc, claiming to block vb script virii. but the thing is, vbs files will not run on the pocket pc anyway, there's no instance of the windows scripting host built in to the ppc like it is in windows. just keep your windows AV and Antispyware up to date, and i think you'll be fine.
firewalls and av software are, at this point, unnecessary added bulk to your device.

No antivrius or firewall on my Axim.

Dood

Another none. It's totally pointless.

ktvyeow

I guess a lot of people here don't know that you can install programs on your Axim and that includes me... :)

MerlinAZ

None. It should be added to the poll.

sportster44

I in the none boat as well. But like everyone, my PCs that I sync with are AV and firewalled.
