Portables ON portables specifically Clamwin

I've not tried using it yet, but I would like to see a port of Clamwin or another AV (freeware or Opensource) able to be used on the Windows Mobile platforms. Its nice to have the software as it stands, but I think that any of the current portable apps would get a broader user base were that possible.

(I'm no developer or I might try this myself.) =\

No can do

Lahru, unfortunately, that's not possible.

Even this site being only for Windows Apps, the Apps portabilized have no Windows Mobile Version. Windows Mobile, even thought it is called Windows, uses a very different coding from Windows. So, it is really hard to port the apps from Windows to Windows Mobile.

Even if it was possible, I heard somewhere that Windows Mobile is used in less that half of the smart phones (needs confirmation). So, it wouldn't make much sense to have such an effort of porting an app for WIndows Mobile. Beyond that, working on a phone, it wouldn't need to be portable, so this wouldn't be the site for that.

I don't know how to find, but there are AVs for smart phones, just look on the web.

Hope to have helped.

Blue is everything.
