Firewall, Anti-Virus-Spyware Applications for Samsung Captivate

[scland]

I have Samsung Captivate Model # SGH I897
Build # FROYO.UCKB1 Firmware Froyo Ver. 2.2
Kernel Version 2.6.32.9
Phone Carrier: AT&T



Are there any Good, Solid Firewall, Anti-Virus, and Spyware Applications for the Samsung Captivate? What are the Best ones?

I honestly wouldn't worry unless you're doing something you're not supposed to be

Try Lookout. It's got the virus/malware protection you're looking for.

Lookout works well for me. Scans all newly installed apps, does total system scans nightly. Free and paid versions in Market.

Droidwall is a good firewall. It does require your phone be rooted, however.

As for virus/malware... you'll have to show me a list of what malware for Android is actually active in the wild and then the anti-malware app will need to actually specifically list which ones they protect against before I'll believe they're anything but snakeoil at the moment.

Webroot has a great, non-bloated anti-spyware app. Some of the others will use too much CPU time and battery power.
