How do I stop MoBile.plugrush overriding sites I go

Hi,


Recently, every time I go onto search either information or look for a product on my iPad, I get redirected to either mobile.plugrush or fl either a Russian or Eastern European country trying to download flash player equivalent. How can I stop this happening. It gets to a point you do not want to use the iPad to browse.


Thank you

This a mobile redirect for adult sites and if you google it you'll find that it being used, embedded in web pages, to "sell" their traffic.

It's no longer limited to adult sites as you've just found out.

It can't work effectively on your iPad, no Flash, but it is annoying and potentially a hazard.


Reset the iPad and restore settings and data from your back up.
