Immediately unplug the thing and contact Vodafone ;)

Yeah the settings would probably only work for future downloads/installs if that one's started.
Another issue might be anti virus updates too.
3g sticks definately aren't built for these sort of things, they'd assume you'd do that at home and use the stick when out and about.
