How can I get rid of a Congratulations-you-won.com-yourprize.com pop up window on my iPad? It wants me to answer ok but I'm afraid it is a virus.

Hello,

I'm very worried right now. Carelessly, I pressed "OK" I thought I could just press it, and exit out soon after. I did. After pressing ok, I exited out the page. After reading this thread, I am very worried. Will anything happen to my phone from now on? Please help, anyone.

I reset it and it still does not work

I Did this and it hasn't stopped. Now what?

I've followed the suggested process of clearing history more than once. It seems to work for a while but then the spam pop ups always reappear. Is there any other solutions?

Have checked your Mac for adware?

Hi Southwrite. You need to stop going back to the site that provides the popups. Or just accept them as the price for whatever you're doing.

The fix to Safari: what effect does this have on the browser that opens Facebook links, which seems distinct from Safari. The only time I see these is when the browser associate w Facebook opens.

Thx!

No, it does not solve the problem. It keeps showing up with any browser, even after installing them new.

I dont visit pornographic web sites, ever. I get it from the NYT.... SO, YOU THINK THE NYT IS PORNOGRAPHIC? You might be right.

Have you check your Mac for adware recently?

If there is adware on your Mac it might be redirecting your browser to unsafe sites.
