Q: Rediected to Onlineckickads page on IPodTouch

Every time I  use safari and search for a page every page I click on is redirected to a webpage called onlineclickads.

If I click on a link on twitter, Facebook or any other social media websites I'm also redirected to this page.

Why is this happening??!!!

iPod touch, iOS 9.3.1

    iDevice Safari Phishing Adware Pop-ups

     

    1. Kill Safari by double-tapping on the Home button. Locate Safari in the task bar, then slide the Safari mini-page upwards so it vanishes.
    2. Tap Settings > Safari > Clear History and Website Data. Next, locate Security section and slide the “Block Pop-Ups” switch to the On position.
    3. Press the Home button to return to your Home screen.
    4. If this doesn’t help, then reset your device. It won't delete your data. Press and hold down the On/Off button and the Home button until the display turns off and returns with the Apple logo showing.
    5. Alternatively, follow these instructions to reset your device: Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support.
