Beats me. I've got a dumb flip phone. About all I've done is upload caller pics and ring tones to it over Bluetooth.
I was just thinking that, if some donk had a program that downloaded on a cell phone but did not infect the cell phone. Then it would download the program from the cell phone to a computer the cell phone was plugged into.
Meaning; if someone isn't careful what is plugged into a network or single computer all the computer cleaning, router replacing ect. would be all for naught once the cell phone was plugged in again to the system.
If the phone is a windows phone, that is a possible scenario. With an Apple or Android phone that would be unlikely. That would be a super virus.
You might want to restrict what is shared if you have to leave this checked "Allow bluetooth devices to find this computer"
WOW.... ALL laptops in the house became junk. When you start them up they say "Boot Manager is Missing" ALL of them! I was using a tablet given to me until now. I just bought a NEW laptop from Dell. Whatever it is seemed to follow me on my nextbook tablet. I could not keep the browser open. My husband has the same tablet with no problems. Something is seriously wrong in this house and I need to at least protect this new one. Please tell me how to best go about it. I know this may sound crazy (or at least I think so) but I feel the spreading comes from my 23 yr old daughters ipad and iphone. Here is the crazy part (don't laugh) I can tell when she gets home because the fan I keep running for whitenoise, starts playing talk or music, real softly. I have identified it to the FTA tv stations. I feel that the things she does on her devices runs through the router to all. This is a new house, 2 yrs old. It was quiet till we had the phone company install the lines so we could get internet. Since then we have gone through 4 routers. The phone company said there is interference on the line, sent someone out and they found a bridge and put a filter on. It didn't help. But the bottom line is something seems in control of our laptops other than just us. I was hesitant to take this laptop online, but that is why I wanted a laptop. I have many questions re: this new laptop but will first wait to see if anyone is still with me...
How does one clean a iphone and ipad?
I agree... but they are not mine...
