Google has pulled 21 malicious apps from the Android Market. These apps are all pirated versions of popular games and utilities, they were made by an entity named Myournet and are designed to download more code to Android devices without the user's knowledge. The deleted applications have been downloaded by at least 50,000 users.

Below is a complete list of the bad apps, all of which were made by an entity called Myournet. If you’ve downloaded one of these apps, it might be best to take your device to your carrier and exchange it for a new one, since you can’t be sure that your device and user information is truly secure. Considering how much we do on our phones — shopping and mobile banking included — it’s better to take precautions.
