My opinion

I think that security companies sell you these programs that come with their own viruses. To attract other viruses to your computer or phone. Computer side I don't use any virus protection but if I go some where stupid on the Internet I wipe my computer out and reinstall the OS. on the phone side I don't think it is as bad as these companies say simply because if people pay attention to what there downloading you will be fine.

McAfee already, launch the software, supposedly to take care of your smart phone, the dangerous virus, as always attack windows systems.

I would not be surprised that intelligent hands, create these viruses, so that companies like McAfee benefit from these services.
