From what I've read and seen, those virus scanners are of little help, mainly because they are subject to the same sandbox restrictions as all the other apps (and aren't going to break the sandbox like the viruses). Most of them appear to be as good as those "Android cleanup" apps that do nothing but constantly clear caches (meaning they will be rebuilt unnecessarily) and bother the user with notifications and adverts.
