Hi all.
As every security aware smartphone user I have decided to install antivirus software for my Nokia N73.
I did some research and I have found AllAboutSymbian forum where I found link to the NetQin antivirus. As You can see – it’s listed as free and it was free till last night.
Everything worked fine for a 6 months or so.
– AntiVirus
– FireWall
– Boot time tools
Never caused any problems to be honest.
When I have decided to upgrade last night – I was presented with this:
I removed it and I have re-installed it to make sure it’s not some silly application error.
Same thing happened.
There were no warnings in the past as far as I can remember. There was no other way of notifying me that the application will require any fees… When I declined payment I got left with Firewall down and out of date AntiVirus database.
All I can say is “Goodbye NetQin!”. Good luck with Your extorsions somewhere else.
As soon as I will find better / free AntiVirus I will post about it.
Regards.
Andy
Edit: I am considering Kaspersky Mobile as a replacement. More details later.
