Is it secure to 'sign' Symbian Applications? Check this...?

It is never secure to sign anything, from documents to applications, unless by signing it you certify that you are the author and that the content is, as far as you know, valid.

There are thus two reasons not to sign an application:
- it is not yours, let it's author sign it
- you know nothing about the code inside that application, it could be a virus or other type of malware

You can find trustworthy applications at http://store.ovi.com , both free and paid ones. If you find a promising application which is unsigned you should ask that developer to make proper releases and to stay by his application's quality assertion.
