Link redirect to App Store
When clicking on legit links within Facebook or Safari, and while using legit sites like Shutterfly or trying to use a legit search box on a common shopping site, I am randomly redirected instead to the App Store, and I never get to see the intended link or type in the search box or whatever. It's like there's something over-laying invisibly, and it's as if I'm clicking inadvertently a viral-acting link instead of what I intend to tap. To my knowledge, I have not downloaded any foolish apps (at least I hope I'm not being mislead by "honest" companies), and this has been happening for a week. The problem is that it's also happening on my Windows 7 laptop, and I'm afraid that backing up my iphone on it has either caused the "virus" to go to my iPhone or vice versa. Either way, can anyone help? Is this happening to anyone else? I have deleted my Facebook and social media apps and even some others, and would delete Safari if I could. I've deleted all of the browsing data and cookies I could find on my iPhone, and it's still happening if I try to use Safari to test it out.
What else do you need to know to help?
