brandenjg Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Has anyone else been tormented by the pop ups on the edp website? Every time I go on the site to check local news an annoying iphone ad appears and I have to come off the site then go back on. I don't mind ads if they're relevant but this is just frustrating.

MauriceMynah Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Looks a bit dodgy to me, I'm wondering if it's phishing or worse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadScot Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I have an Android phone, but would have thought you have a pop up setting to block such items on your iphone. As MM says, looks a bit iffy! Iain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawsOrca Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Yup my andriod is fine.. I think what you need to do Branden is grab a hammer.. Apply a continued hammer action to the phone .. get down to your nearest phone shop and buy an android phone... I'd suspect it's a malware on your phone, maybe try and download a virus checker and/or do a scan. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just gave the website a go and didn't get any popups so it could be malware, yeah. Worth taking it down to the shop in Chapelfield and get the 'geniuses' to look into it... I prefer young Alan's method with Apple phones! Iain. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Iain, It should apply to Apple products, flawed, overpriced but ideal for the Gadget-man. Regards Alan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandenjg Posted December 16, 2015 Author Share Posted December 16, 2015 I've got an android phone aswell but find the format more suited to children, also have a windows phone and not a fan of either platform. My sony Ericson from 10 years ago is the best phone I own. My iphone was a hand me down from my dad so didn't cost anything I'll get an antivirus and have a scan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
