Upon N97 Mini map data could be stored upon either mass memory or memory card with choice available within Nokia Maps application > Settings. Don't want you removing map data unnecessarily but you may possibly need to delete both E:\cities and F:\cities
+ .qf file and re-start Nokia Maps application to re-define necessary folder structure; it may help to set Nokia Maps "Online" and download a few kb's of map data via WLAN access point by zooming in to your current location and start again downloading maps
to chosen destination.

Almost certainly as not enough free phone memory to store maps.

 

Hi!

In my Opinion - Avast.

I used Avast a long time. (Now I prever: Eset Smart Internet Security. Malwarebytes Pro,
Malwarebytes Anti - Exploit Premium.)

 

Much more important than the anti-virus you use is behavior. I've used MS Security Essentials or Defender and Malwarebytes for over 5 years and never have gotten a virus on my computer.

 

Thnx for the Help guys,,

yea,,my biggest problem is my old "non-steam games" that I play need patches, and I seem to find them in
the most "questionable" download sites, seems the only places to get them are the cloud services
that have a Ton of advertisements, and several download buttons that can get confusing*Eek

I'LL just have tobe more selective o n patch downloads

Thnx for the tips!!*Smile

 

After you download a file, scan it with a virus scanner before installing or opening. This isn't 100% either, but at least adds another layer of protection.

Never just install with defaults. Always do the optional install and read, read, read before pressing OK. That will also stop a lot of malware/crapware from being installed.

 

All you need is Avast AIS, I have used it for years without issues.

 

Have been with Symantec Internet Security or whatever it is called in the present since 2001
Norton Power Eraser
Sophos Root kit and virus scanner
Malwarebytes
Internet for tips on removing the really bad stuff
Caution and thought for all DOWNLOADS and EMAIL opening or running
Scan for viruses all Downloaded materials regardless of the source

I have been hit and I have recovered. Not exactly an easy task for some deeply installed bad stuff. Beware, it is out there and you are responsible for your actions.

 

This has probably been posted before, a few times, but Windows Defender (much improved), Malwarebytes free, Avast Free (turn OFF realtime elements). Superantispyware is good for nuking cookies. And a good dose of common sense. That's about all you need. No need to spend a fortune on stuff. And, have a good, practical backup plan. Macrium, Acronis, are good. Both have free editions.
