Beware of the last version of the 360 antivirus

I saw all my save games erased twice and I didn't understand what was the problem. In fact when you clean your phone in the last version of the free 360 antivirus, it erases all your save games and your save states in the Drastic folder.

I can confirm this, the devs have emailed QiHoo Inc. addressing this issue

someone sent me a SMS trojan on qq and avast! mobile security caught it and deleted it. android itself made no attempt to stop me installing it. there is point of using it, at least for less advanced users

Especially for those who just happened to have a smartphone and yet aren't as savvy with using them.

Not using AV on Android is fine. Not using AV on Windows is just plain silly. You could easily visit a site with an infected ActiveX control, or a webpage that automatically downloads malware and much more. It doesn't matter that everything you've downloaded has been clean. That could just as well change one day and you would regret it. I reccomend you at least get Avast! Antivirus or something
