Android smart phone question
New smart phone user here. Is virus protection needed with a smart phone? If so any recommendations? Thanks, John

I installed Lookout on my DroidX when I first got it (around 2 years ago). Ironically, that very software bogged down the phone so bad I ended up uninstalling it! :S I've been running it naked ever since, no problems. I don't keep anything important in there though, so if I lose it or something it's not the end of the world.
Mine came with Lookout. I enabled it and yes, bogged down the phone and ate up the battery. I removed it, had to root the phone because it came with it. Lookout wouldn't go away once I set it up, kept coming back. My phone is a phone, I don't use it for banking, etc. so I don't use anything.
