Root Beware: Rageagainstthecage

[(G)]

This is probably old news to you folks, and I'm not meaning to cast aspersions on anyone.

Tonight while doing a routine virus scan on my desktop, my virus program found a trojan in rageagainstthecage.bin. I'd downloaded this and used in this method http://androidforums.com/droid-all-...oid-without-rsd-lite-up-including-frg83d.html of rooting.

I don't know where I downloaded it from, but obviously I got one that had been tampered with.

Running a virus scanner on the phone showed that it was allegedly uninfected.

So just something to be aware of...

Uhm... nevermind.

Yeah, of course an AV would find it. It's an exploit

ROM's will sometimes pop up in AV scans too. As stated above, they're exploits.
