How do I DISABLE all WAP Browsing?

Wasn't sure if this was the correct place to post this question but...

I bought two Samsung a737's for my parents, and they will have no clue on WAP browsing, or downloading anything from the phone.

Does anyone know how I can restrict (or DISABLE) the phone from accidentally using up data charge$ if they press the wrong button?

THANKS!

yes go into the phone's settings, find the internet connection settings, and completely trash them. rename everything to incorrect settings, so if they ever accidentally try to connect, the phone will not be able to since all the settings are wrong. its the best sure way to disable internet on your phone.

This should have gone into the Regular Phones subforum of this main forum. If your parents do not intend to send any messages, you can get Customer Service to turn off data. That is probably the safest approach.

I would just add a 1 to the end of each setting, so it can be restored if the need for data changes.

1+, call AT&T and have them shut off data, but not MMS messages so you can send them pictures.
