It is not malware on your phone. It is your browser being hijacked. You are probably best off not visiting sites where this happens; there's a good chance the sites have been hacked. To clear the problem (which may be only a temporary fix):

  • Turn on Airplane mode
  • Press HOME once; wait a couple of seconds, and double-press HOME
  • Scroll to Safari and flick the screen image up to kill the Safari app
  • Press HOME
  • Go to Settings/Safari, scroll down, and tap Clear History and Website Data
  • Press HOME
  • Reboot the phone by holding HOME and SLEEP at the same time until an Apple logo appears
  • Turn off Airplane mode


This should fix the immediate problem.
