The best one available is absolutely free. Common sense.

Ridiculous, as there are no Symbian viruses for S60v5. Only S60v2's are affected also thanks in part to the encryptions used in S60v5, which the reason why it is unnecessary for S60v5 to have Anti Viruses. However, as anyone could tell you, the memory cards are vulnerable to PC viruses which at times may render files invisible. The same viruses which affect flash disks also affect memory cards since they are of the same type of flash hardware. Although of course the phone cannot be infected.
