All these "free" "fun" "really useful apps we all download are loaded alright...with spyware, maleware, phishers, key loggers, viruses, worms and
Trojan...and some browser hijackers.
Your mistake is trying these apps out because they AMKE them look so interesting and useful to us in our everyday. Thats how they get us. Even using
our mikes and cams to record or watch when we don't know it.
The one that got me was the flashlight apps. I thought it was such a cool thing...until I read the top 10 all have phishers and loggers and codes they
put in when installed...that stay under the radar even if you delete them.
They make things so attractive and convenient for us all that we all want them....and by then....they got us.
