I don't think it is the same. The company that created the software for mobile and computer is the same. But the software itself is different. Computer antivirus software is in exe format while mobile antivirus software is in different format depend on the cell phone OS and brand. Like nokia is using a different os than samsung or sony. So different phone has different software type. Even the same brand doesn't always use the same OS. Like Nokia has 2 type of OS, symbian and java.

It's not the same. But computer antivirus company still can find solution to block cellphone antivirus from harming computer. As long as your computer don't run program that used by the cellphone, then there's no problem. The antivirus company will find the solution on virus base on customers complaint and internet surfing activity. When we surf internet, the antivirus program will connect to their base host to submit unusual computers' activity for the company to analyst. Then they will find the solution and install to our computer in software update.
