The invention provides a system and method for managing a mobile station wirelessly. The control software includes a dynamic agent operating program and a group of objects linked to the dynamic agent operating program. Some of the objects allow the mobile station to utilize services, such as accessing the Internet or E-mail services. Additional objects for providing access to new services may be wirelessly transmitted from a management server to the mobile station over the air and stored in the mobile station. Users may selectively delete and download objects to customize the services available through their mobile stations while minimizing the memory requirements of the mobile station.
