Nice find, are you using it?

What's cool about it is it's only 9.43k in size. Seems to merely be a file association or something since if you were to click the link to the coding it pops up the app chooser.

Of course. Better to be safe than sorry.

Of course. Better to be safe than sorry.

I was just unsure if it just alerted you or if it actually blocked code from being executed. Does it just monitor unusual code or does it go on with every incoming call?

***Nevermind - Just installed and tested. Thanks again for the great find!!!!!!
And I agree "Better safe than sorry!

i installed it mainly to give a great review to the dev' (im Smity on gplay) but ive kept it anyway incase any similar threats come up in future. my firmware is up to date and ive disabled stock browser/contacts

p.s i noticed not many reviews from s3 users... c'mon guys, respect where its due
