what is best malware removal tool for iPad 4 IOS 10.3.3?

Force close your safari

Then, if you have icloud syncing for safari turned on, turn it off

Go into the settings and throw away your safari history

then reboot your device

That should make it go away. If not it’s possible your router has been compromised and if that’s the case you’d need to look on the manufacturer’s site to see their recommendations for removal.

Apple support chat advised a very basic solution that seems to have cured my problem. Open settings, go to Safari, activate Block Pop Ups button. Obviously, I was not aware that such a button existed. Who would want to permit pop ups?

There are some web designers that like to open popup windows for such things as "Get Info" about some item or a "Help topic" - my bank uses one for its "Secure Message Center"

I consider it bad design since "ads" have taken over the feature/function

A longtime member here in the communities WROTE the Mac version of this (AdwareMedic) & is now an officer with the company

You could try the NEW iOS product for Free for 30 days > https://www.malwarebytes.com/ios/

I use the PC "pro" version and see its value every day, sometimes several times a day.

THere are also print windows that come up on sites, where once you print something either a print friendly view comes up in the pop up window or a printer control dialogue box.

So there are legitimate reasons to have it, but as said, the ‘bad guys’ have taken it over to push their malicious content out.
