My beloved Blackberry Curve met a bad end so I needed to pick a new phone. I decided to go with the Motorola Q9 after hearing good things about it. In rummaging around my new phone I found a link to download MacAfee VirusScan. After kicking the tires, I decided it added nothing useful so I removed it. It did not go away. I then tried killing it in the process list but it came back. It’s like a zombie from a George Romero movie, it just won’t stop. It no longer shows up in the list of installed programs and it is eating up my battery needlessly.

MacAfee VirusScan Mobile I dub you "malware."

I think I found your problem. You installed MacAfee, obviously a malicious clone of McAfee. ;-)
