For those of you who are feeling a bit "concerned" due to recent viruses and malware in the Android market do you really think you need to run a full blown virus app? Some do. I don't. Why? I know what every single program on my tablet does, what permissions it has, and where it came from. I do not run AV software on my Macs and I am certainly not going to start running it on my phones or tablet unless it is 100% necessary. Right now, in my opinion - is it not (and this is 20 years of IT talking). In the "old days" you would have to go to the Market, read what the permissions the app was going to ask for, read the reviews, make sure it had be downloaded a few hundred times, etc. Well, this process just a whole bunch easier!
Privacy Inspector is the only app that can fully lookout for apps that steal your private information and may be harmful to your device. It is unlike any other app in that it can actually scan through other apps code to find privacy issues. No other app can do this on Android! This is what sets Privacy Inspector apart from other apps that claim protection.
He is also woking on the Privacy Blocker that will, after scanning for potential violations, can actually fix the problems that are in the application(s). After fixing you can install the secure app directly on your device without having to worry about it.
Just FYI: This is a VERY NEW application and it will occasionally FC (force close) but the developer is actively working on fixing the issues and only $2 for us early adopters. Here are a few screenshots:
