| | | | how to avoid bricking your PSP I know that when you use 1.5 app, it have direct access to the flash rom.
that mean that any software you install could potentially brick your psp.
is there any utilites that preventing installed programs from changing the firmware?
also this tool will be usefull if it prevented sony from updating your psp incase one of my friend tried to update my firmware when he want to play his game

Avoid p2p downloads like torrents etc...
Only download from reputable sites (And tried & tested stuff)
There is a trojan checker (no guarantees) .. I think it is here or on pspupdates

Arggggh please dont ruin this site only post USEFUL and RELEVANT info.... | Same here.
as soon as Ihateusing2.5 starts posting inside a thread, you can be sure only unproductive comments start flodding and the thread itself will loose its intentional topic.
i'm very soothed this guy is no moderator in this forum. even his signs s*ck hard as they enormously increase downloadtime of this forum when opened with a PSP.
there are *very* good alternative PSP forums out there...with MUCH lesser childish members. just take a look at http://forums.maxconsole.net/ for instance.

| | | | there is a program called PsafeP,
it runs on the PC and scan the software if it will access the flash mem to read or write.
having said that, no garuntee but better than nothing. | |
