text:
Scegliere "Si" per ricaricare i propri crediti, scegliere "No" per accedere
direttamente.
If the user clicks YES to the message box and agrees to install the content
from the following security warning then the dialer will be run, switching the
internet connection to a predetermined number. If the user clicks NO, the
application automatically connects to a predetermined website.
If the user agrees to install the program, the dialer copies itself to the
