Phone: Qmobile A900 Quad Core with Android Jellybean 4.2

I install an App then over night it gives birth to multiple icons of itself. this is not happening on the main (Home) screen but in the installed apps list.
there is no option to remove or delete the icons there just "Move to Home Screen".
or " Uninstall".
Uninstall on any icon removes the app and all its sibling icons
but I want to keep the App
I believe either it is a virus or Android's inability to drive my phone.

So far I have more than 3 icons per app of "VLC", "WinAmp", "Draw Rider" and "Flow Free"

all the apps causing this were installed from Play store so if there is virus then Google sucks.

Can any one suggest the cause or even better a solution to this?
