anti virus

[poobah]

Hi everyone. I'm extremely new to this so please excuse any daft questions I may ask in the near future! I've just ordered an X5A from Amazon and I was wondering if I need to download some sort of anti-virus. Can anyone help please?

In my personal opinion I don't think that AV software is needed yet on the phones... but suspect this will change in the not-too-distant future.

I'm new myself but I've been trying "Lookout" and it seems decent if you want to try something.

A waste of time, money and battery.
