Am I Compromised?

I was GrooveShark and I accidentally tapped on of the ads. I didn't get to see what it was but I got taken to the App Store. When I exited and back to Safari my tabs were gone. I cleared cookies and cache and history under settings then went to Safari to open a bookmark but they were all gone except the starter ones. I restarted my iPod and check Safari again and they were back (luckily since they're a pain to find). I was wondering if any part of my iPod was compromised or possibly hacked in anyway. I contacted the site's help center on Twitter as well.

iPhone 3G, iOS 6.1.3

Unless your iPod was jailbroken, the chances of it being compromised in any way just by visiting a web site are extremely small. This was almost certainly just a temporary glitch that was corrected when you restarted your iPod.


I would suggest backing up your bookmarks, just in case this happens again and the next time they don't come back when you restart.


Regards.
