For a while I was using Lookout. All it did was scan apps and make internet browsing "safe." Is this necessary? Are Android devices susceptible to attacks and trojans?

LoudRam said:I use Avast. I've also used Lookout and AVG in the past and liked them too. For me it came down to the lost/stolen features that Avast had. I liked them. I've also used Avast and AVG on my desktop as well. They have always been good especially considering they are free.
