Doesn't surprise me. I have malwarebytes premium on my desktop. Only thing is it blocks a lot of sites I probably shouldn't have tried to visit and the big thing it pops up scan finished notices that I haven't found anyway to turn off. And they stay on the screen until you dismiss them.

But I already know it's working full time in the background.

Anyway I've been watching youtube and you have some fucked up cops in Florida, but I guess they are much the same everywhere.

Cops be cops ...
Some good, some not so good ...

And real-time antivirus is a good thing; mostly ...

Hey Thrash are extendable batons legal in Florida? You know the ones that go from a short stick to a long one with a flick of the wrist. They are banned for the public here in Ca.

A lot of malware isn't picked up by standard anti virus, but Malwarebytes mostly gets it.

I've still got some kind of shit on my android phone because I'm too lazy to use it to log in and download a cure. I get this shit "Beautify Picture" almost every day and if not constantly deleted it will install many other garbage apps that fuck up the ability to even use the phone as a phone.

My son says I should reset it to factory, but I'm hesitant to do that because of all my contacts I've collected.

Get Super Backup+ ...
You can back all of that up first ...
Also, if you logged onto Google when you started using the phone, all of your contacts are backed up already (and some apps) ...

I think google may be the problem. And if I back up everything won't that just transfer the problem as well?

No, it reinstalls the apps from The Play Store, and let's the app's own servers restore your placement/info ...

That's what I'm saying, the apps and the playstore ARE the problem.
I think I shall have to write them down and load them back in one at a time after a restore. Might solve my problem though.
The ex called me this morning and an ad popped up covering the screen and I couldn't even answer the fucking call until I dealt with the garbage apps. It's pissing me off. They are always on the top layer.
Btw I have tried really hard to get rid of google play services always running in the background altogether and it just isn't possible. I only want a functional phone damn it.

Or MalwareBytes ...
