Checking for unwanted software

I'm wanting to know if I can check for unwanted tracking software (spy) on my Nokia 6210s-1 Navigator used in Australia. I rarely use WAP/internet features ,, my service proviser bill shows hourly over( 24hrs) "pings/call" to WAP/internet lasting between 2-4 seconds.
Thanks

It soubds like one of the applications on your phone is accessing a server to upload or download information hourly. Typical application that do this are ones that update weather information or curency exchange rates or location applications such as friendview etc. There are thousands of potential culprits. What applications have you installed on your phone recently.

  • Software Update wont check for new software.

    Software Update wont check for new software.

    No - I'm on 10.6.8 and it functions normally, though there are now very few actual updates. If there are no updates the progress bar should still complete in around 3 minutes and announce that there are no updates, so you've got something hanging somewhere. If it's still stuck hit command-option (alt)- escape, select Software Update and hit Force Quit. You could try it again (I should reboot first) in case it's a one-off glitch, but if it still sticks force quit it again.
    The best suggestion I can offer is to apply the combo updater anyway in the hope that it may over-write whatever is causing the problem.

  • I am unable to get past the first step of Winston Churchill's answer because my phone says "checking for a software update failed because you are not connected to the Internet". Did my WiFi connection also get lost?

    I am unable to get past the first step of Winston Churchill's answer because my phone says "checking for a software update failed because you are not connected to the Internet."  Did my iphone's WiFi connection also get lost with the Contacts, Mail and Text Messages?  When I tried the software update, as recommended by Winston Churchill, the iphone was connected to my desktop which is connected to the Internet.

    You can't use your computers Internet connection to update your phone from the phone itself. If you want to use the computers Internet connection to update your phone you must update it through iTunes.

  • HT201210 how do I correct - Unable to Check for Update  an error occured while checking for a software update.

    error message:  Unable to check updates.  an error accured while checking for a software update.

    It is all in your WIFI.
    I have 2 internal Wifi networks at home. In one (family) the software update works immediately, in the other one (guess) it gives me the same error "Unable to Check for Udpate" ... The guess network I did set up carries some restrictions being the reason why the update does not work.

  • I am getting occasional Safari is out of date messages but checking for new software says "up to date".

    weI am getting occasional Safari is out of date messages but checking for new software says "up to date".  Initially we subscribed to Support but did not realize that it has expired.  We have upgraded the OS once but have not received any notices of additional upgrades. So far I have not come across a way to update on my own.

    I suspect this is the issue but wonder whether it is wise to upgrade my model:
    Model Identifier: iMac11,2
      Processor Name: Intel Core i3
      Processor Speed: 3.06 GHz
      Number Of Processors: 1
      Total Number Of Cores: 2
    Will it run it?

    have you tried downloading ard 3.2.2 yourself rather than to use software update to fetch updates for you? you can read about it here http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/appleremotedesktop322admin.html
    you may also like to try the command line. i normally use the command line to perform software update instead of hitting apple > software update... because ive had less trouble running it via the command line. the command i use is +softwareupdate -ai+

  • Software Update Stuck on "Checking for New Software..."

    Not sure why, but today when I selected "Check for New Software" from the Apple Menu, Software Update started checking and does not proceed past that step. I've included a screenshot to show exactly where it's stuck.
    http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/9536/picture1ss7.png
    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    You may want to go to the Apple Downloads site and download the update manually, then check the .dmg with Disk Utilities’ Verify Disk, and then run the update package.
    Sometimes there is an internet interruption that can corrupt the download, especially using a modem or DSL.

  • Apple Software Update is stuck in the "Checking for new software..." phase

    I installed iTunes+Quicktime using iTunes64Setup.exe and so ASU got automatically installed as well.
    When I manually start ASU, it immediately checks for new software and the progress bar stalls at around 10%. I have not seen ASU run by the task scheduler yet.
    Bonus: The ASU logo has weird colours (http://imagebin.ca/view/XN2-zrN.html)
    Is anybody also having the same problem?

    That's an odd one.
    Have you tried a repair install of ASU?
    Head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Software Update" and click "Repair".
    Any help with the hang or the logo issue?

  • HT1338 My software updater freezes when "Checking for new software..." and then fans speed up.

    Whenever I run software update, the blue bar freezes at about a fourth of the way across while "Checking for new software..." and then the fans sometimes speed up until I click Cancel. Sometimes it eventually completes "Checking for new software..." but when it does it is usually 45 minutes to an hour later. What gives?

    If I reinstall the OS, will that jeopardize my data, docs or photo library? 
    No.  Boot into the Recovery volume (boot with the Command + R keys held down) and first select Disk Utility to  repair disk permissions and the disk.  Reboot and try the App Store again.
    If that fails boot again into the Recovery volume again and reinsatll the system.  Your data and photos will not be jeoparadized.
