I've just had someone or something try and send "client.jar" to my mobile. Needless to say I declined to download it but has anyone else had anything similar?

It was like the crap you see as pop ups when you visit a website. I have also gotten phone calls from telemarketers. I used to only get those type of calls on landlines, but now i find myself screening my cell phones calls :sigh: sidbobs 04-01-2009, 14:34 was u in a shopping centre? asda? somewhere like that? it mite have been one of the shops trying to send you thier ad, always happens when i walk into asda or the cinema,i dont think they are of any harm, best thing to do is not walk around with ur bluetooth on :thumbsup: DavidFish 04-01-2009, 14:57 look for the 'push' setting and turn the automatic/allow setting to off/no. Your provider might ask you to turn it on if you ask them to set some settings from over the network, say like internet settings. But in general it means apps and settings can't be controlled remotely.
