Odd app waiting to update

[drhere]

Last night, I was checking my account via my SGSII, when the my data app said there was a new version, and directed me to the market (Play Store), and there was another app called ""MTC" by OJSC Mobile TeleSystems" which was in Russian. Per the Market, it is for a Russian telco. I didn't update this app as I have automatic updates turned off, I only updated my other app.
I saw a few entries in XDA and nobody has been able to remove it. Anyone seen this app in their Market settings?

Looks like the Droid 3 ran into this issue today. Google pulled it and it also may not be malicious.
