   As far as I can tell, I don't have a single app that has malware in it.   
   Remember, I can turn *off* any access that I want (so can you).   
      
   Here's a short list of permission explorers and managers:   
   Permission Explorer-com.carlocriniti.android.permission_explorer-9-   
   v3.1.apk   
   Permission Friendly Apps-org.androidsoft.app.permission-18-v2.1.0.apk   
   Permission Manager-com.appaholics.applauncher-6-v2.0.apk   
   Permission Manager-com.ovmobile.appopslauncher-5-v3.0.apk   
   Permission Manager FREE (App Ops)-mobi.facelock.permissionmanager-4-   
   v2.2.apk   
   Permission Manager-mobi.infolife.permission-3-v1.2.apk   
      
   I am curious why *you* (and Brian Gregory) feel that you can't turn   
   off any permission that you want to turn off?   
      
   Do you not even *know* about this capability?   
   If so, you need to learn how to manage your phone better.   
      
   But, so that I can learn from your experience, what do *you*   
   use to manage the permission access of each of your payware apps?
