I ran a scan on my Android phone (HTC Inspire) and it reported that BeautifulWidgets had a Trojan horse Andoird: Xybot-E [Trj]
This program is installed on a lot of devices so it seems odd that it would contain a trojan. I tried to submit a false positive report but it fails telling me I do not have enough memory to send. I used a program to clear out memory but I still get the same error message and cannot send the false positive report.
So I guess I have two issues.
- Is this program really infected or is this a false positive?
- How can I send a report when it seems to be impossible on my phone?

1. Is this program really infected or is this a false positive?

It seems that you are using an outdated version of this app (latest is 5.2.0).
I have the same problem, avast! is saying that BeautifulWidgets (5.2) is a trojan known as Android:Xybot-E[Trj].
I have uploaded the app on VirusTotal and all the results are clean.
If someone of the administration @avast! is reading this… please fix it in the next signatures release.
Thank you!
