How to install an Antivirus On Nokia Mobile?

Installing an antivirus in a mobile phone will give you some more peace of mind. It can protect you from malicious softwares being installed on your mobile. There are so many antivirus softwares available in the market for using in mobile phones. Kaspersky mobile security, FSecure, etc are some of them. As I am using Nokia 5800 XPressMusic which is a 'Symbian S60 V5' OS based mobile, here, I am discussing about a free software which can be installed on such devices. Other OS users please check the compatibility.
'NetQin' is one of the best antivirus available for your phone. Version 5.0 is the latest as on now. You can get it from 'NetQin' website or from 'Nokia Store'.

Download and Install 'NetQin' and open it.



Select fast scan to scan your mobile for existing threats.. The advantage of 'NetQin' is that it uses a 'Twin Scan Engine' ,which will club the power of internet also. It also called 'Cloud + Client Twin Scan Engine'.


Upon selecting the 'Scan' option, it will scan your mobile for viruses and display a report regarding scan.
Each and every software you try to install will be scanned by the software.

You can make up a 'restore' of your SIM contacts, allow connection settings,etc.

There are some 'Pro' feature through which you can set mobile phone 'Anti Lost' setup, Virus database auto update,etc.
In the free version, you won't get the feature of  antivirus database update.

Here shows the image of 'Pro Member Zone'.



Send feedback about the software by saying a comment on this.
