Question:

what mobile anti-virus shall I install into my phone that is safe and secure as well as it is free???

are mobile anti-virus reliant and really provide security for mobile phones??

Answer:

with third version you do no longer want virus risk-free practices because of the fact all purposes (alongside with viruses) must be digitally signed in accordance to your very own IMEI quantity. you basically want anti-virus for 2d version
WoW! You must have a pretty good phone! I don't know if my phone could even GET a virus! LoL maybe I should update!

First of all, you have to specify the exact model of your mobile phone. Unless it is running Symbian, Windows Mobile or PalmOS, you can't install an anti-virus program on it and you don't have to, either - there are neither viruses, nor anti-virus programs for the phones running proprietary operating systems. Even if it is running one of the three operating systems mentioned above, unless it is Symbian S60 R2, the threat is negligible - there are only a couple of malicious programs for the other operating systems (or even brands of Symbian) and the probability of your phone getting infected is virtually nil. Still, many anti-virus producers will gladly sell you an anti-virus program for Windows Mobile, PalmOS, Symbian UIQ or Symbian S60 R3 - despite that you don't really need one. Now, if your phone is running Symbian S60 R2, you really need an anti-virus program for it - there are hundreds of malicious programs (viruses and Trojan horses) for this environment. However, there is no free such program that is sufficiently good. So, you'll have to decide what is more important - price or quality. If the program being free is the most important criterion, try Calvin Stinger (first of the links below). If the program being good is more important to you, then try F-Secure's anti-virus program (the second link below). If neither of them works for you for some reason, ask again and I'll provide you a list of a couple of dozens anti-virus programs for mobile phones.
