Why the same question again

This question has been asked around 100 times on SO. I am asking it again because all the answers say this is not possible but at least one of the app in Market is doing it NQ Mobile Security. I started a bounty of 100 points on the similar question but it did not get enough attention. If community does not accept I will remove the question.

What is the App doing

The app shows an activity when user tries to uninstall it

and does some processing before it is uninstalled

    As @CommonsWare said The techniques used by NQ Mobile Security have been reported to the Android Security group, and they are working on a fix to stop this behavior from occurring. and have raised a feature request with Google hopefully they may listen to it.
