    I was not aware of this malware in the flashlight app. I will be doing a factory reset on my phone this afternoon.
    "One cannot but ponder the question: what if the Arabs had been Christians? To me it seems certain that the fatalistic teachings of Mohammed and the utter degradation of women is the outstanding cause for the arrested development of the Arab. He is exactly what he was around the year 700, while we have kept on developing. Here, I think, is a text for some eloquent sermon on the virtues of Christianity." - General George S. Patton, diary, June 9, 1943.

      BTW, we found out up at MVT, that these smart phones flash like a very bright beacon that came be seen very well with night vision. Dennis

        If you have an Iphone with Apple's flashlight app you're probably ok.

        If you have a Galaxy, Android or windows based phone ditch the flashlight app.
