About an hour ago, I found out about flexispy (google it).

Flexispy is a phone trojan which currently affects Symbian and Windows mobiles and allows the perpetrator to track contacts, texts, phone calls and so forth from a targets phone. This is by far the disgraceful and abject application I've ever seen developed.

Everyone deserves their right to privacy, regardless of whether they are doing the wrong thing by their partner or not.

The developers of flexispy were even arrogant enough to deem the phone anti-virus 'F-Secure' as malware, as it has "no right to interfere with your choice of software", and that they are "answerable to no one and have set themselves up as judge and jury about legitimate software".

Ironically, it's those who actually use their products who are the ones with the authority issues.

They then go on to say "Here is how to remove F-Secure and reclaim your rights". However, hilarity strikes again, as their software is taking away the rights of those who are infected by this shit.

According to a video I watched, it takes roughly 2 hours to load and install onto the phone.

Here are some googles I found that might be useful to you to protect yourself / remove it:

Thanks for the info. Although I would assume that would only service those living in Philadelphia - or can atleast send it there?

Looks like you can ship a phone to them, you can get an address of IDF Task Force at their website

I suggest you to check this list of best rated antivirus software reviews and see if your antivirus is on the list and if it's not, you should use one from there cause there are all very professional. I use Kaspersky for example which is the top 1. http://www.best-antivirus.co/
