<div>A question ... I noticed there was an AVG for Android in the Market. Does that provide any real protection?

<div>I've been following the android market compromise yesterday and today and finally found a reasonably complete list of the infected apps. If you installed or updated any of the apps below in the last five days, your phone might be infected. I have removed
Chinese names from this list to limit the spam trap issue. If you're installing non-English apps, check out the links. The top link has the fix. You can also fix this by upgrading to Android 2.3 (which may require you to root your phone and install a third
party build like Cyanogen).<br>
