WINDOWS PHONE 7 DATA LEAKER REVEALED

We have previously reported on the mysterious data leaking app on the new Windows Phone 7 OS. Microsoft was able to identify the offending app, but kept mum on what the app actually was. We now know it is Yahoo Mail. According to a statement obtained by Microsoft guru Paul Thurrott, a fix is expected in the "coming weeks," but in the interim, you can mitigate the pain by going into settings and choosing less taxing options for "Download new content" and "Download email from" -- say, for example, "manually" and "the last 7 days," respectively.

Now you know and knowing is half the battle!
