The other day my friend told me that he got a message through Face Book from me that was a keylogger link. I looked, and I had sent a similar message to everybody on my friends list, and it was sent through FB mobile.
I downloaded Droid Antivirus software (lookout and antivirus) and antivirus came up with an "SMS" based virus (in other words something that was received through text messages) Right now I'm REALLY concerned about everything in my phone as far as information goes... this thing has phone numbers, addresses, e-mails... everything.
What can I do to be totally, and 100% sure that I've fixed this, and how can I prevent it from happening again? Right now, I'm changing passwords for everything that may have been compromised on the phone.
P.S. I feel like a total noob right now. I've gone a very long time on my computer without getting viruses or spyware, or any of that... I've only had my phone for a couple of weeks now and it's already got one. I didn't even know you could GET a virus on a phone!
