    Contact the seller and ask them what their security code was.

    There is also another feature which requests a code when a new SIM is put into the phone. Either way the person who sold it to you should have the code.

    I dont think this will remove it on the n97, but worth a go. Reset, by pressing shift, space bar, delete button, and the power on button together for 5 seconds. The phone will restart and reset.

    If not the code can be removed for you. Normally cost about €20 in a shop
