Hi all, Any ideas on how to get rid of being redirected to gofreebies.org. It just pops up when in Safari or going through a link on Twitter, there seems to be nothing you can do to get rid of it. Very annoying when your trying to read a website. I'm wondering whether i have a virus however everything read says there are no viruses for Apple products.
iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1.1
If this is on the iPhone... there are no viruses that affect iOS.
Is the device jailbroken?
Hi there, it is an i phone 4s running the most upto date version. I'm new to Apple so i'm afraid i'm not sure what you mean by jailbroken. I;m confident though that the answer will be no to that question
Does this only occur when connected to Wi-Fi or when on cellular data as well?
Have you tried a reset or restore of the device?
Honestly sounds like the device is jailbroken.
Yep both wifi and cellular. Not every website though. Links from twitter and a site called über humour. What's jail broken?
Oh forget. Yep I've restored the phone now. Unlucky for me I didnt back up my numbers. So far so good though
http://www.apple.com/support/safari/ you may have just needed to clear your cookies and data.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4211 closing Safari from running in the backgound sometimes helps.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946 backing up is worth the short time it takes. It sure beats re adding your contacts by maually.
🙂
Cookies, cache and history was the first things I tried. It's still happening though. Yep backing up would have been good
I keep getting redirected to gofreebies.org. whilst using Safari or looking on Twitter. Any ideas on how to get rid of this?
