Common sense

how stupid could you be to get a virus onto android

waht? there are viruses for linux?

Adaware and Droidwall are more useful.The Best stuff requires root in order to use it. For the casual android user your screwed plus you have no control of your device at all. ( The ads do tho? LOL) A virus is the least of your problems. I have Avast just to have a virus scanner plus i also use malawarebytes.

That is something that many users lack unfortunately.  

Maybe in the future?

So true. Having no root access sucks! Kinda want to root my phone, but the last time I try, Failed and lost both devices I tried on.

 

Malawarebytes is ok, used it on my PC before, but only the trial. Removed like 10 viruses! LOL

XDA developers website is a realy good resource.

I know, I go there all the time! Just switched my tab from there to here.
