'Tis the season for pc viruses
Just a heads up... So far today, I've received at least two emails purporting to be from Amazon.com, thanking me for my order. Fortunately, I don't have any orders pending with them because all were infected with a "trojandownloader" pc virus. All were blocked by my ESET NOD32 antivirus program. (I've noticed that it has been updating multiple times a day lately, so the virus creators have been busy...)
And with a smartphone, these are being downloaded there, as well. Whenever there's the slightest doubt, I don't click on links from the cell phone, thankfully. I've done some research on free cell phone antivirus programs, but does anyone have a favorite they use on an Android phone?
