Most of us don't really worry
about becoming a victim of a virus which somehow lands on our mobile phone. Recent publicity about Symbian operating system viruses (used on the Nokia smartphones
predominanly, like the 6630) still overshadows the fact
that almost all viruses are still confined to the PC, and namely the Windows operating system.So, if you are out and about and your Bluetooth phone "asks" you something you weren't prepared for, be cautious - very cautious. What is known as "bluejacking" - which now only includes the sending of unsolicited text messages - could someday include sending surreptitious requests or semi-attacks to your mobile phone. This all sounds far-fetched to many, but with the extended range of Bluetooth 1.2 (over 30 meters in many cases) and farther, and with laptops increasingly featuring built-in Bluetooth that stays enabled most of the time, this problem could be somewhat of a nuisance in the future. I don't call it a major problem, but only somewhat of a nuisance.
