And those jumping to android cuz of how many times you need to soft-reset, don't be fooled. Phone was on perma-freeze in last post. Rebooting now.

An app won't be able to get root if you have super user installed because before using root it has to get permission from super user. I was talking about root itself...do you know how we root the phones? what happens is this, Android has an exploit..using this exploit we obtain root privileges..same for iphone jailbreaking...so even if your not rooted, a program can use the exploit to gain root access...

Got number and changed password then reloged in with google sync and new password. I then recieved 8 seperate emails show mail sent failed to all contacts. But one went thru and was a link that sent me to http://drugstorepillssite.com/ with link in outgoing mail of Please wait... my kid dropped my laptop and broke it few days ago so only have evo logged into net. This just happened a couple hours ago.

I just had the same thing happen to me last night! I also received 8 seperate emails that also failed. I would really like to know what is going on!!!

Of the 8 that were sent, I received 1 of them. When I clicked on the link my anti virus software in my computer blocked the threat. It was trying to send a virus to the people in my contacts.

How do I even know if this came from my phone or one of my computers?

Your computer AV, what did it identify the virus as? the name..

The computer identified it as Backdoor.Generic13.IUE

Any info you have would be greatly appreciated!

Everything that I found online points to this being a Windows 32 bit virus...
