More than one problem

Help.  I have had problems with my Curve from day one.  It has dialed people when the keyboard was locked (my boss), has dialed people while the phone was sitting on my desk, and has repetitively dialed people six or seven times in a row (and no they were not one speed dial).

 

Now this weekend it dialed a number I had deleted from my address book.  A minute later it sent an answer to a webblast advertisement - while the phone was locked and in my bag!  I realized it because the webblast kicked it back.

 

I am wondering if there is some type of spyware on the Blackberry.  How can I find out?

 

Thanks

Re: More than one problem

Not likely.  You've had problems with it since "day one?"  So, it had this "spyware" on it since day one?  Nothing is installed on your BB unless YOU installed it.  Look in Options >Applications to see what all is installed on your device.

 

Do you see all these outgoing calls in the call log?

Re: More than one problem

Someone from my IT company set it up.   Yes all this has happened from day one, except the reply which I did not type or send.  Considering the company I worked for, spy software is not off the table.

 

I will look at what you suggested.  Thanks
