    Have you checked it out by scanning your phone with your mobiles antivirus on your phone. I think that it is a kind of virus or a spyware which transferred into your phone form your friends computer. I think it haven't infected your mobiles data, i would be a computer virus which are incapable of infecting phones data. You dont need to worry to remove it you can scan your phone with an antivirus which scans mobile phones ot memory card. Just install one of them and try to remove it.

    In order to remove the virus from your phone then you need to do the following methods which i did. You need to restore your phones data, do the steps for restoring the cellphone to the original settings just type *#7780# on the phone which will ask for reboot (make sure that you have your battery fully charged) you need to wait for sometime until your phone boots, and finally when your phone boots. You will see your mobile at the state in which it was a brand new. This will help you to reset you mobile phone which can also remove virus from your phone.
