ringtones

As mobile phones have gained popularity, the interest in personalizing everything about one's phone has also increased. Aside from taking photos and caller IDs, users can add different sounds that play when a call or text message arrives, often specific to the person calling. These are known as ringtones.

If magazine and late-night television ads are to be believed, there's an insatiable thirst for new and varied ringtones out there. Everything from quirky noises to full songs can be made into ringtones. Phones can sometimes be made to accept any MP3 file as a ringtone.

Ringtones are often downloaded to the phone directly through the Internet. However, for all the legitimate sites offering ringtones, there are a number of malicious ones as well, offering files that will break your phone rather than offer up that slice of originality you were hoping for.
