First Android Virus

Kaspersky Lab, one of the big names in computer security and antivirus technologies has reportedly identified the first virus targeted at the Android operating system.
This particular virus, Trojan-SMS.AndroidOS.FakePlayer.a, is a Trojan that is distributed through a message sent to users which asks them to to install a 13KB "harmless" media player app. Once you've installed it, the Trojan begins sending SMS messages to premium rate numbers -- all without further interaction from the end user.
The Trojan is, according to Kaspersky Lab, the first identified to specifically targeted Android-based smartphones.
Any one have antivirus to protect our x10 from these kind of virus

Not sure if you are in India.. but there aint any premium rate number concept here.. 1p sms rulez ..

yes there are. they are not known specifically as PREMIUM RATE but if you pay attention to the fine print in advertisements, you'll find several that charge you upto 6 bucks per minute. you can find these in mostly tv shows where you can text to vote I guess.

I do drafting and product presentation work. I took my laptop to work and IT installed all the software so I could work away from the office.

It depends largely on the software licence (EULA) for the product. Sometimes, companies allow the software to be used like a book. It can only be read by one person at a time but many people can use it. Other agreements allow only one person to use the software and may further limit the use to one specific computer (or even hardware group meaning you must contact the software company if you upgrade your hardware).
However, most times Warez refers to obtaining software that you do not legally have the right to use.

Let's Keep It Professional With This Thread Please!!
With That Said, Here's A Somewhat Brief Summary Of A Few Of These Markets I Posted....
Enjoy....
ApkShare:
I Like ApkShare Mainly Because Alot Of Apps I've Searched For On The "GM" (Google- Market) I Was Unable To Find, Until I Used This "ApkShare" App!
AppBrain:
This Is A App That I Really Didn't See The Purpose Of.... Mainly Because I Didn't Notice A Major Difference From The "GM" Until Recently.... When I Gave This App Another Shot And Actually Found It To Be Pretty Useful. I Found Adobe Flash, Bing, & A Few Others I Was Unable To Get From (GM) At The Time!
SlideMe:
SlideMe Is A Okay App....
I Came Across One Day When I Was *Fairly New* To Android,
And Thought I Knew Which System Apps Were Needed On My Hero, Lol.... Anyways I Mistakenly Uninstalled "HTC SENSE" (Launcher)
And I Had To Use The Internet To Get A "File Manager" Because I Couldn't Get Into (GM) Or Any Of My Other Apps! Anyways After Searching I Found SlideMe!
SlideMe Has Some Of The Same Apps As "GM" But On The Other Hand... Also Has Alot Of Apps Not Available On The "GM"
(May Be Non-Us Based??)
App Center:
I Used This App Here & There But, Honestly Can't Remember How Useful It Was!! Lol...
Appoke:
Although It's Not My Favorite,
It's A Decent Market..."I Think" They Just Recently Updated It With A Better UI??
Getjar:
I Like Getjar Because Of It's Size, It Doesn't Waste Alot Of Space When Installed! I Believe It's Basically A App That Connects You To It's Website??
WipAppStore:
This Is A App That Links You To Other App Markets!!
Worth Checking Out!!
My Market:
This App Allows You To Access Other Service Providers Markets For A Chance To View And Download Apps, That May Be Otherwise Unavailable To You!!
MarketAccess:
Almost On The Same Idea As The Previous App (Above)
But..... "The Difference Is"
This App Allows You To Change Your (Sim-Numeric-#) Anyways, I Think That's What Its Called??
Lol....
I Have Another Thread With Some Codes You May Find Useful With This App, If You Have A Problem Finding It PM Me For Help!!
Finally..... I've Been Asked About A Certain Market App (That Exists) Which Allows You To Get All Paid Apps For FREE, And Claims Their Markets For Pirates!! Lol, Cause You're *STEALING*!!!!!
Unfortunately......
For This Very Reason I've Decided Not To Post, Or Even Say It's Name!!
**Out Of Respect**
For "ALL" The Hard Working Developers!!
If You Want This One, You'll Have To Find It!
SORRY EVERYONE!!

It's legal, it's just another market. Most of the apps you can find there for free are free on the Android Market too.
They give some apps for free which normally you pay for, but I think it's a way to get more users and that they pay those apps for you or something like that.

It is really legal this site I mean getjar is dealing with the developers and share their apps for if you don't believe me just visit the site. I know payment is the best way but this the other way and I believe that it legal you can check the wheter they are cracked or not.
Thanks you all to warn me...

If you have a rooted phone you can install lucky patcher dont install it from google play store install it from onhax i would have provided you the link if i had permission. Then install modded playstore (also from onhax) i would recommend you that you backup your real playstore with titanium backup before installing because it will replace your playstore. After that open lucky patcher and locate the option patch to android then you will get free apps dont think you will not need to pay on googleplaystore you will have to download free apks of paid apps this method only skips the verification off app payment. I have tried this thing myself its works pretty well
p.s hit thanks
