BlackBerry gadget known for their certificate -- in big part because many of them are on a BlackBerry initiative Server, and are managed by a learned BlackBerry administrator. But what if you're a single BlackBerry user, looking to ensure your device? Lookout can aid.
Lookout is a free anti-virus, removed backup, and protection application for BlackBerrys. It is easy to use, and helps you ensure your BlackBerry data rapidly.
Easy to Setup
After you create an account on the Lookout site and instal the application program on your BlackBerry, setting it up is simple.
When you run the application program on your BlackBerry and enter your account credentials, a short setup wizard will describe the protection features and enable them. Once the wizard is done, you can choose the Anti-Virus option, and you will be prompted to run a virus scan. Once Lookout determines that your system is virus free, choose the Data Backup option, and all of your personal information will be backed up to the Lookout servers. If your BlackBerry is lost or stolen, you can restore your data to a new device.

Lookout's best protection feature is the ability to locate your device from the Lookout website. If you ever misplace your BlackBerry, or if you suspect that it has been stolen, go directly to the Lookout website to locate it. Click on the Missing Device link once you log in, and you will be presented with three options. Lookout allows you to Locate your BlackBerry, make it Scream, or Nuke it remotely. All of these options require your BlackBerry to be on and have a network connection, so it is best to go directly to the Lookout site when you first notice your BlackBerry is missing.
Locate, Scream, and Nuke
The place feature does just what it audios like: it allow for you with the estimate location of your BlackBerry. When your gadget has been settled, the Lookout site will showing the estimate location of the BlackBerry. When you know where the gadget is, you can seek to remember it by searching the vicinity, or notify the confidences.
If you have lost your gadget when it is on vibrate or silent, it can be cracking hard to locate. The call function will sound a loudly on your BlackBerry, no subject what mode it is in, which will allow you to settle your gadget. The only way to stop the siren is to do a hard reboot on your BlackBerry (take the electric battery). This is also a good way to cry care to someone who may have taken your BlackBerry.
While trying this special feature, we had to restart our BlackBerry (extending BlackBerry 6) multiple times to stop the call feature. The application does tell you that you need to restart the BlackBerry to stop the alarm, but it should instruct users to do a battery pull, because that was the only way we could stop it.
The Nuke feature deletes all of your personal data from the BlackBerry remotely. If you have made every attempt to get your device back, and you have a backup of your data, use the Nuke feature to keep the person who finds (or the person who has stolen) your device from getting a hold of your personal data as well. If you eventually find your device, you can restore your personal data using Lookout's Backup feature.
