My Android hasn't had a problem since Jason posted this 5 days ago.

bighenderson, make sure you clear your history cache. I had to remove one of my "direct links" to the S Type sub directory as it must of had the virus associated with it. I now have a new "direct link" to the S Type sub directory and as I mentioned above, no more unwanted ads/spam.

Still happening... I've cleared my browsing history a number of times.

Thanks for letting us know. Our ad team is looking at other ad partners that may be unintentionally serving these pop-ups.

Have you noticed if the frequency of these unwanted ads has gone down, or is it just as bad as before?

It was good for a couple days but not for probably the last 5 or so. I clear my browser history at least daily

This issue had gone away, but since upgrading the OS on my phone, to iOS 10.1, and now 10.1.1, I'm getting these redirects several times per day.
I'm always on the X150 forum when it happens (the main forum I follow), when I click on a thread with unread posts.

Argh! Just happened again when attempting to return to the top level of the X150 forum.
This page (below) occurs between the 2 I previously posted:

Thanks for letting me know, kj07xk. I've alerted our ad team and they're investigating.

Please continue passing along details as you see the intrusive ads.

It happened to me three times in a row, when trying to access this thread and immediately after clearing browser history. Using Safari on iPhone 5c.

Thanks for the screenshots, 150FHC. I'll pass this along to our ad team to investigate.
