#Android worm virus Pc

On previous occasions that 'X' did NOT skip the ad, it would invoke the default browser and take me to a 'buy it now' 'Warning, you are infected, you must buy this or you data is at risk'. The only thing that would work 'short of accepting it' was to press the 'X' in the top left corner that says 'skip this ad'. The Home key would not get rid of it, the Clear key would not get rid of it, The Recent Apps button would not get around it. I did a long press on the digit '3' to auto-dial her and this screenshot appeared. Then I needed to call SWMBO and ask her what she wanted brought home for lunch. I was just beginning to think that it was all from 'Go SMS Pro' and with Ad Block now installed, the worst was behind me. Well, I used the phone a lot today right up until the noon hour. Sent from my Galaxy S5 Active using Tapatalk Have you tried using AVG? Also, have you downloaded any apps recently? I will though if I have to.Oh no, that sounds awful and extremely annoying. but lordy, I have done a lot of tuning up since then and didn't want to do that. I can always just format the phone and use Kies 3.0 to restore it back to where it was 3 months ago.

This bad critter is like the stuff that gets hidden on a PC in a root partition that can't normally be accessed.ДЄny suggestions as to what program to use to kill this nasty critter? I just this minute installed: Ad-Network Scanner & DetectorДЄnd let it run, it came up with just about zilch. I just now started doing Screenshots of everyone of them that show up so I can analyze this mess. I thought it was AdMob adverts for a while, but I am now sure it is not. What I have is a worm that is hiding from the normal virus detectors. None of the three of these has detected a virus something that I was pretty sure did not exist on the phone anyway. Ran a virus scan with Clean Master and Bluebox Security.

I installed AppBrain Ad Detector and let it scan looking for the culprit.

Somewhere about 2 weeks ago, my phone started getting a bunch of weird popups that can't be ignored that overlay the app I want to use.
