Unfortunately, according to what I've found on the web, this malware constantly changes its address so no one has been able to open its location. Also according to the web it is associated with a site called media.net and is distributed by Yahoo and Bing which I don't use and no accounts with either. It has a reputation for being a particularly nasty app that makes $$ for the pushers each time the banner appears.

As I stated earlier, it is only appearing on SOH. So far, it seems to have only infected some of us who use mobile devices to access SOH from time to time. I'm no PC guru, but I believe I got this by clicking on a link in the sale thread. That, of course, is no fault of SOH. And the person posting the link probably didn't know it was infected. And, so far, my PC has not been affected. As a precaution I will not click any 3rd party links here going forward until its been determined where this came from and how to get rid of it.

Still researching. Any and all help in resolving this is very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve

I'm having the exact same problem. But only on my iPhone. PC and iPad are fine. I asked my brother to open SOH with his iPhone. He never before visited this site and also sees the ads. So it's really weird.

I've send you the link, Ickie

[therealjambo]

Still here too, Android, Google Chrome

Thanks

 

[Ickie]

I went back again and it is the only thing uploaded in weeks to the forums whats gets me is it was uploaded today 2 am and if you seen it before that then it is at your end
maybe it is a googler thing

Strange, if it was a server side "infection" than everybody would see the same thing. Won´t they? I see that the majority of people with the issue is using iOS too. Maybe a hint?
Another thing: i use AdBlocker here in all my browsers. People can test it too if it helps to make this thing go away.

 

[Ickie]

I just had M$ do a safty site scan here is the results

 

[Mach3DS]

Here's what I did:

1.Uninstalled Google Chrome from my phone.
2.DL an anti malware and Antivirus program (Avira free) from Google play store.

3. Ran the scanner. Found 2 malware. Deleted them.
4. Reinstated chrome v 55 on my android smart phone.
5. Turned my phone completely off -- power off then power back on after about 30 seconds.

Thanks Ickie.

Thanks Rick.

I changed last night to Mozilla Firefox but was no help. I've been unable to find a freeware or payware malware tool for iPad IOS.

If anyone can suggest a trustworthy malware tool for iPad IOS (9.3.5 latest for iPad 3) I'm open to suggestions.

Love this community. Most helpful I've ever been involved with.

I think this might be the culprit,but,I honestly don't know 165420519.keyword blocks.com/Top_Flight_Simulators but don't click on the link to be safe.

I "unlinked" the link. It does look like a spam site/link. Like double-click, sort of. If you've ever got that one you know what I mean! -- PRB

I agree................

I got it too on iOS (only on SOH). It seems to be some Javascript, because when I go to "Settings > Safari > Advanced" and disable Javascript, I don't have the pop-up. Enable Javascript again and it returns.
