Firewall for Windows Mobile? - Touch Pro, Fuze General

hi, id like to ask if there is a software that tracks what programs connects to the internet. i don't know what programs are connecting right now but my bill just went way above its limit due to GPRS and 3G use.. i found that the program i downloaded, palringo, was what caused it, plus my email which was set to recieve every 2 hours. these new phones are all about mobile internet usage nowadays..

Oops, answered the question with a link to a firewall program... Let me see if I can find one that tracks programs individually.

That's what I got, not sure if it only gives IP's of data transfer or if it gives the application name all the time. You can see it lists ActiveSync. See if that works.

That's exactly the the reason why I have a contract @ vodafone with unrestrained access 4 inet...

too bad theres no unrestrained internet access plans with my provider

trendmicro
Trend Micro also offers firewall for Windows Mobile. I have already downloaded it, but did not test it yet.

I agree there.
Hands down the best IM program for WM.
I've been using the latest version on WM6 and it works great.
My only complaint is that on reboot some times it's today plugin won't load. This isn't WM6 though because it happened on my WM5 device too.
It seems to do it a lot less often in this new version though.
Very good app.
Did you have to pay for it...I did a quick google search and it took me to a pay site...I was in a rush tho...so I guess I have to search a little more later...
yes, it is a pay app...

May be old, but it's still good. Used it on WM5 and STILL using it on WM6. . . works like a charm!!
AT&T WM6 Messenger (aim, yahoo, msn)
On this ebay post.. there is an 8525 running wm6 with an interesting app which has aim, yahoo and msn functionality. Can't wait for that update! Has anyone ripped out that messenger to work on wm5?
I believe it's the standard OzIM program, but if I'm not mistaking, I think it uses SMS instead of internet to send/recieve messages.
It Is the OZ Program! I Have both OZ Programs (T-Mobile And Cingular). If anyone is interested pm me! I have also posted the T-Mobile OZ Program Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=302654 Post #2. Hope It Helps. And Yes OZ Takes From Your Texting. But Y Care If You Have Unlimited Like Me
Heres The Cingular OZ Instant Messenger Program If Anyone Is Looking For It. Hope It Works! Havent Tried It Cuz It Wont Work On Tmobile Phone. Tell Me If It Works Thanks!
i just installed it... i have 'Cingular Blue', so if anyone has any idea how to configure the Cingular OzIM to that, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.
Does it need internet?
So, if OZ Messenger uses text messaging, do you still need to be subscribed to an internet plan? Cuz doesn't the program still connect to go online first (wap.voicestream.com thru your connection settings)
I spoke to a t-mobile rep, and they said they "think" you need the internet plan for it to work. But if thats the case, you have to pay for an internet plan AND a text messaging plan? Catch 22 if you ask me. But its hard to really trust their word, cuz their representative are all mindless idiots, im so sick of dealing with them.
But if indeed it uses the internet plan to go online first, then you might as well buy IM+ as it is 10x better and instant messages come in real time.
Please advise

you don't need a data plan but you will need your connections setup because of the texting..Which is VERY slow
Just get IM+ if you want pay for it or just find the crack..Just not on this forum.
it won't work for me on my MDA. but i only have the t-mobileweb plan with the proxy and not the total internet plan. IM+ also won't work either...well AOL will because I can specify for it to work on port 25 but everything else won't work because the ports are blocked with the proxy.

Resumable Downloads?

Is there any sort of download manager etc... or way to resume downloads on windows mobile? I finally got a data plan but half the time when I try to download things they stop part of way through. The only free thing ive found is a program called pocket downloader but it only works on wifi and lan for some reason.

pocket downloader wont work with wireless data connection (wifi and lan only)
EZdownload has problems. Not really made for windows mobile 6. Very unresponsive and couldn't get it to dl.
AED, not really sure whats up with it. Was avoiding it since its java but went ahead and tried it. The 4.4.5 just gives me errors when I try to download something.
Rest are pay or for a different OS
I tried all of the ones google turned up a while back. Was just wondering if there something one of you guys had made or knew of that I missed.

Toshiba TG01, 3UK (three), iSkoot free Skype. Anyone one managed to get this to work?

Hi, I have been trying to get my TG01 to use the free Skype on 3UK. what I have done so far is install iskoot, changed the registry values as people say to do on forums winmo phones but I keep getting unable to connect when attempting to login to Skype. I have notices baseurl keeps changing.
I have also changed the APN to 3services, I can go onto free internet services on 3UK like ebay and planet3?
I want to get the free Skype and Windows Live Messenger to work on this, I have not tried getting Windows live messenger to work yet, been too stuck on the iskoot skype thing, it's driving me nuts.
Has anyone managed to get these free services from 3UK to work on their TG01?
Also I have found that 3UK is now selling the HTC Hero with these free services and I think you can download both Skype and Windows live messenger if you have the HTC Hero, has anyone got the installation files to share or tried installing this on another winmo phone? does anyone know what the HTC Hero user-agent is in Netfront?
Edit: just noticed the HTC Hero is on android and not Windows Mobile, but still other winmo users have managed to get their 3UK skype working through iskoot. Anyone having this same problem or know of any possible solutions? (keep getting the unable to connect message)
Any help much appreciated

3 uk has free skype service which routes calls through a 3's special GSM number instead of internet/3g/wifi. normal skype client routes calls using skype servers but this will cost you data charges but 3's skype routing is free as long as you are on skype. Now, iskoot makes special clients to route skype calls through 3's GSM number.
Yep I think coolkat is right.
So far I have managed to get free ebay, limited Google also a few bits a bobs 3UK gives for free like weather news clips without topup.
I really want to be able to use the free skype to skype text and calls even though I have never used skype before, I have created accounts with them just for this purpose.
I don't see why it is not allowing me, I have followed the step by step instructions people have posted on other threads but repeatedly getting unable to connect. Thinking of trying the 16th March Windows Mobile 6.5 update sometime soon to see if it will help.

[Q] Say what? Wi-fi internet sharing for Windows Mobile 6.5?

Hi everyone. I've been hearing mention of some sort of Internet Sharing application or addon to the comm manager, that would allow me to turn my phone into some sort of hub. I'd like to be able to use my phone's connection with my iPod Touch, (or perhaps, other devices), so my searching is what has lead me here.
However, I don't really know what the "defacto" modification is for getting this capability. I've seen several threads already. Also, they seem to lack in documentation. They come in cab files - would that mean I can just download and install from my phone right away?
So if anyone can recommend me a wifi sharing app, (preferably for the HTC Ozone), I would be very grateful.

Auugghh. The website logged me out, so I lost my entire post
Anyhow, I'll try and re-write what I had last time:
So I'd like to use 0.9.1, since it seems to be the last free version. I downloaded it and installed it ok, but I have no idea how to use it past that. Could you possibly link me to a guide, or detail it in here?
Well, I gave in at the airport and just downloaded the trial.
Very nice. I'm so glad that I can use a browser that was a least half thought out (safari mobile) rather than that Intermet explorer. What a waste of my unlimited data plan that would have been.
Although, I'd like to be able to use that free version of WMWifi if I could. So does anyone happen to have a guide for it?

[Q] are you experienced free access to internet without using wifi?
