    Like the malware that may target jailbroken iPhones (or even non-jailbroken a few weeks ago), you have to agree to install it. It won't load itself.

    It's a Trojan. You're not agreeing to install the malicious part of the code. That's just an added bonus you get with Android or jail breaking, yippee!
