Dr.Web for Windows Mobile beta-version released - anti-virus protection October 23, 2007 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R. While we do not believe that there is any danger, that Windows Mobile phones can be seriously infected by virus programs (by now virus programs in smartphones were detected mostly in Symbian phones), if you are of different opinion, the Dr.Web for Windows Mobile program, comes to the rescue: Information from the software vendor follows. * * * * * Doctor Web, Ltd., a Russian anti-virus developer, announces beta-testing of a new anti-virus product — Dr.Web for Windows Mobile. Dr.Web anti-virus for Windows Mobile protects Pocket PCs and communicators running under Windows Mobile 2003/5.0/6.0. The new product combines resident virus protection (real-time detection of viruses) and on-demand scan (on-demand files check). If the monitor detects malware, it will be temporarily blocked, a warning message will be displayed and a user will be prompted to do one of the following: ignore, delete or move to the Quarantine. All information concerning the activity of the monitor is stored in the log file. Dr.Web for Windows Mobile scans on-demand mobile devices for viruses. It can check both the main memory of a device and the installed memory cards. One can do full scan or specify manually the objects for scanning. Based on the results of a check a user can perform one of three actions: ignore, delete infected files or place the files to the Quarantine (a special directory created by the anti-virus program on the device). Virus database update feature of Dr.Web for Windows Mobile guarantees up-to-date protection from the latest malware threats. Virus database is updated via the Internet. To update, a corresponding option in the scanner menu should be selected. To learn more, click HERE.
