Hi all,

I've been having a number of problems with my N8 running Anna (v22.014); the symptoms being unable to connect to email / use gravity/opera browser. I also get occasions where the entire phone locks up and have to reset.

In playing around it looks as though the problem appears to be with F-Secure, I'm currently running it disabled and everything seems to be OK.

Has anyone else had this problem and is there a fix ? Alternatively, is there a lightweight and stable alternative ?

Thanks

 The only feature you need from F-Secure is the anti-theft feature. You absolutely do not need anti-virus for an N8. My suggestion to you is to un-install F-Secure and try Theft aware 2, free from the Nokia store.

 Just to recap, there are no known viruses that can infect a Symbian^3/Anna/Belle phone. Even though there are anti-virus apps available, they are as much use as an ashtray on a motorcycle and in most cases will cause problems with the phone.

 If you're still unsure have a read of the official statement from Nokia.
