Can anyone help with this issue on Gaschat? When viewing on my iPad (Safari)I keep getting some sort of ad or similar saying something like "Congratulations you have won £1000 of Argos (or similar) vouchers. Just press OK .....etc"
I seem ok with my Windows PC (Chrome). No ads.
Doesn't appear on any other sites and seems exclusive (if that is the right word to use) to Gaschat or the other Forum.
Has anyone had these pop up on their screen and how do you get rid of it?
Many thanks in advance for any pointers.

There isn't anything mods can do as this is clearly an advertising bot that works between your iPad and proboards (our service host)....
There are usually ad block programs out there and sometimes deleting caches and history can help....
Pleased to hear of anyone who can help solve user issues.... Any suggestions out there?

Can you download another browser on the iPad? Like Firefox or chrome? You know, one you haven't watched loads of porn on.

Thanks.....was thinking (in my simple way) that would be roughly the answer. History deleted without any effect. Just wondering if others had been affected. |
