How do I deactivate the captive.apple.com feature?

How do I deactivate the "captive.apple.com Authentication Required" popup on my iPhone and iPad when I try to access the Internet from my home WIFI, even though my WIFI network has a check mark indicating connectivity?


I know that I have connectivity because for a couple of seconds before this popup appears and stops further access, my email updates or the desired web page appears for a moment.

iPhone 5s, iOS 8.2

Hello,

I am also seeing the same popup every time I login i.e a window says "success in Joining Kamal" at the end it gives this url

http://captive.apple.com/pgcWZ9eB/dl9tKHK6/srJscmdX.html


is this a malware or spyware? Are there any tips on how to preempt spyware from infecting the mac -besides paying for it to buy anti-virus software?


thanks
