I have an HTC Wildfire with a 4 gig media sd card in it, but when i take photo's with the camera and then connect it to my pc to add them to the gallery on the computer, Microsoft Security Essential flags some of them but not all as malicious and wont let me do anything with them.
Have i got a virus on the phone or is this just a false positive.

Thanks.
 
more than likely a false positive. windows and android use completely seperate file types, so even if it really is a virus as far as windows in concerned, it wont affect your phones file system.

Essentially its the same reason why a mac virus wont work on PC and vice versa.
