Some more details, it was WidgetLocker 1.2.2, which is from July 2010
and several versions out of date. It was named "WidgetLockr" (Pirate
spelling?). It was an unmodified APK signed by me, the one I had
posted to the Android Market (no LVL at that time). I contacted Opera
with a DMCA takedown notice and received no response. I also contacted
[email protected] , because it seemed Opera's store is powered by
Appia. I got a reply from [email protected] saying they took it
down and to contact them again if there is further problems (They did
indeed take it down). So it seems Appia and Handango and Opera are all
the same store.

A quick check shows that other warez, like Beautiful Widgets, is still
available.
