Hi everyone,
please excuse my naiveity, but I have a question regarding malware and viruses in android. I don't download many apps apart from well known apps like angrybirds but mainly use my phone for web broswing and checking email. Recently I accessed my hotmail account and opened an email with a dodgy link, probably a phishing link and accidentally I opened this link. Now I am wondering if my phone is infected with malware or a virus? If so what can I do to fix it? should I download an anti malware or antivirus app to scan my phone? I am not sure if the phishing link was designed to infect windows OS only or can it infect android and jump to windows if I connect my phone to my pc?
