A downloader Trojan that has adware features and targets Android devices. It is distributed under the name of KKBrowser. The main malicious code is incorporated into com.kk.sdk.

Android.DownLoader.171.origin encompasses features of adware and downloader Trojans. Once installed, the malicious program connects to remote command and control servers (http://120.**.73.213:80 http://s.1329***.cc:88) and downloads applications specified by cybercriminals; at that, if Android.DownLoader.171.origin has root privileges, applications are installed automatically (otherwise, a relevant prompt is displayed).

Again, if Android.DownLoader.171.origin has elevated privileges, programs are removed automatically (otherwise, the user is asked to give their consent).
