I assume this application, an anti-exploit, is not updated since 2012 and therefore it does not work correctly with newer androids or devices, also, that cannot protect the smartphone from the last exploit attacks because its database did not have increased for a long time (8 years). What a horrible waste of time downloading that.

Not working. Xperia Z1 Compact, android 5.1.1. I uninstalled default chrome browser. I tried clicking on links on other browsers, gmail etc. but it won't work. No dialog box appeared. By the way Im thinking of buying Avira antivirus soon.

About this app

This app protects you from the dirty USSD hack, which could erase your SIM card or even execute a factory reset if you visit a malicious web page, either through a bad link or QR code. Any smartphone running Android 4.1 or earlier may be vulnerable to an unwanted USSD wipe.

How it works
==========================
When you click on a web link or scan a QR code, Android will open a dialog with a list of apps that you can choose from to complete the action. Select ‘Avira USSD Exploit Blocker’ and set it as the default.

Protecting your phone from the USSD Android exploit is that simple!


What is a USSD code anyway?
==========================
USSD codes are keypad commands that can be used to access a variety of phone functions, from checking minutes to accessing expert controls. USSD commands typically contain a mixture of numbers, stars and pound signs.
