ANOTHER ANDROID TROJAN VIRUS FOUND
On the heels of the Geinimi Trojan, Lookout has discovered a new Android Trojan that is repackaged in popular Android apps and distributed through app markets and forums serving Chinese-speaking users. Called HongTouTou, this malware requests additional user permissions and appears to be executing a set of search-related activities in the background (unknown to the user) including emulating keyword searches and clicks on specific search results.
