You absolutely do not have a virus on your iPhone. No iOS viruses exist.


A similar thread was locked prematurely just recently.

It is a problem with some advertizer or advertizing feed.

Probably an "affiliate" earner.

Best you can do is disable popups in your settings, and use an Adblocker.

Rather than dismiss it, someone should look into it. Or admit they accept it for the sake of the money.

It appears that this issue is back again. Was good for the past few weeks, and has re-appeared with a vengeance. Started out only doing it in the POD, but get it in all forums here on HDF now. Do not get this on any other websites.

I don't get it here. I use it on a laptop, desktop, iPhone, and two Android tablets. Not a problem. I use Webroot anti-virus on all of them.

I've noticed it recently too. Although this round is a bit less aggressive.

Heavily damaged by FOUR virus! Lol. Nah but I only get this here on this site, on my phone. Don't know why. Happened twice just a little while ago. I just close the window and it's gone, but then came back here and it happened again. Wierd.
