Call me paranoid, but I normally can't help it lol.
But anyways, I recently was on the internet going to websites looking for lyrics to a song. I accidently clicked on a popup that came up that said that I was visitor number whatever and wanted to complete a survey. So I closed the browser as fast as I could, and being paranoid about that, I downloaded and installed AVG Antivirus from the Android Market. I ran a scan and it said everything was alright. But then I came on back to these forums and found that antivirus applications have been known to cause more harm than good to Android phones. I then uninstalled the app immediately after that. Its been almost 10 hours, and nothing seems to have gone wrong with my phone. The only quirk I got was my SMS application Force Closed on me (which for whatever reason, my phone has been force closing a lot of applications as of late, but I think that might be caused by my theme).
Basically, can you help ease a paranoid person's mind by answering if it is alright or not. Thanks!
