Nope. There's no anti virus software on the P1.

Never heard of a virus ever affecting UIQ so I dont think anyone has ever made an antivirus for it.

No antivirus from factory. No need for it at current state of UIQ either.

P1i doesnt have a pre-installed anti-virus from factory. You dont need one either unless you use to download to your card via your computer which may be infected with virus. I've tried AVG and Macafe antivirus because I normally download to my m2 but they used to slow down my phone. But Trend Micro Mobile Security is much better than the two mentioned earlier but I've uninstalled it since the phone doesnt have virus on it.
