Off-Topic Discussions / Re: Do you use public wifi?

« on: February 24, 2016, 06:09:19 pm »

Hi, guys!

I usually use public wifi whenever my smartphone detects an available open network. Unfortunately, my phone is infected by similar adware as the case of @never's buddy. I download and made scans with several AV applications but they they didn't detect anything ... Do you have some other advices?
I read the article and definitely want to install mobile VPN service. Do someone of you use such service and which do you recommend?

Thanks!
