Re: Android Virus/Spyware

OK so I got sort of a list.... taken from android central...

Someone contacted Android Police with a list of applications that contain malicious code to root your device, and this has resulted in Google using the kill-switch and pulling 21 applications from the Market (and users phones). Here's the list of affected applications according to Android Police:

•Falling Down
•Super Guitar Solo
•Super History Eraser
•Photo Editor
•Super Ringtone Maker
•Super Sex Positions
•Hot Sexy Videos
•Chess
•下坠滚球_Falldown
•Hilton Sex Sound
•Screaming Sexy Japanese Girls
•Falling Ball Dodge
•Scientific Calculator
•Dice Roller
•躲避弹球
•Advanced Currency Converter
•App Uninstaller
•几何战机_PewPew
•Funny Paint
•Spider Man

Re: Android Virus/Spyware

Among the best antivirus programs available for Android system is definitely AVG Antivirus Free. It gives you a comprehensive diagnostic of all SMS, it was difficult to track those calls. And you had to wait until the phone bill arrived and look at the numbers individually. If there was one that sounded suspicious, you had to call it.
