What is wantracker.com?

Hello again,

When I launched Safari on my iPad, wantracker.com appeared in the address bar. Does anyone know what this is ?

Thanks,

Mike

iPad 2, iOS 8.1.2, null

Yes! My Safari, Chrome, and Fecebook apps are all occasionally being redirected to this website! Some Forbes page keeps coming up advertising some drug but it is wan-tracker. I can't figure out if my ipad is infected with something or if it is on the websites.

i Have deleted Chrome and cleaned out all cookies and cache and history everywhere else.m what's wrong? I'm worried. I have ipad 4 with iOS 8.

Kitagrl,

I did a search on "wan-tracker" and came up with: http://www.who.is/whois/wantracker.com

Don't know if this will help any one, hope it does.
