Thankyou Steph.
I was browsing for some java midlets (free ones) and find alot of them are
unsigned. Is there an official site somewhere that has signed midlets? Or
a website that is known trustworthy for safe midlets?
Its easy to say don't install anything I do not trust, and I always follow
that theory on a PC but I do not know at the moment which resources are
trustworthy :-) |
