Yes, download redsn0w and run it. It will jailbreak and hacktivate the phone. There are 2 links to tutorials on redsn0w on page 1 of this thread

I finally got it today but I must have done something wrong
the phone just hangs on the apple logo when it reboots, any ideas ?????
That happened just after I followed the steps here
Hack that Phone - Jailbreaking and unlocking the iPhone 3G S - with hacktivation
and specifically after I copied the lockdown file
any hints ???
Forgot to mention that the apple logo is accompanied by the spenning wheel after abour 20 seconds
Ur help will be highly appreciated
I have been able to connect to iTunes in recovery mode then I started purplera1n and then it hangs once more on the GeoHot graphic
A hard reset led me to the same apple logo+spinning wheel hang
May be the lockdown file leaks the right permission.....

Some possibilities:
1) Redownload the lockdown file. It might have been corrupted.
2) Check the ownership/file permissions of the lockdown file once you have copied it over. It should match the other files in the same directory.
3) Don't restore from a backup. Do everything from scratch and set up as a new phone.

@Brecks: Look at the guide I linked to at the end of the first page. You will need to hactivate your phone by overwriting the lockdown file.
