Stimpy 0 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Chaps, Any of you browse with an iPad or similar device? I do and quite often when I first log in the forum bounces me to the App Store for some war game. Happened regularly for a bit with FF too. No bigy but I'd prefer it didn't happen. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stimpy 0 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 I'll hold off for a couple of days and see if he does. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I don't use Apple gear here mate, but one thing which could possibly cause it is an advert for the game, so you could try installing an ad-blocker or something depending on what browser you're using. The Ghostery extension for Firefox is excellent in terms of tracker and ad blocking, but on iOS it's apparently an actual browser rather than just a browser plugin/extension and it might be no good. Worth looking into this subject in general though because that could maybe be what's causing the issue. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,136 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I'm afraid this must be an issue with your browser/device mate. We don't have anything installed on here to cause the issue. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Could it maybe be the Google Adsense and/or DoubleClick advertising trackers Frankie? It would normally only be advertising which would cause automatic redirects. It's possible that it's the browser or device, but do you get malware etc on iOS devices? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juancornetto 1 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 It might be the Tapatalk / Forum app triggering the Appstore to open. Try changing the settings in the actual Appstore app to switch off automatic re-direct or options along those lines. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stimpy 0 Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 Cheers folks, will try that. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedell 5,329 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 It's been happening to me as well. Let me know how you get on, SRB. Cheers. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedell 5,329 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I am still having the problems. It only seems to be an issue with gersnet and I don't have the redirect with any other site. I'm using the standard IOS browser Safari, and as far as I know you don't get any add-ons for it. I don't know how to change the redirect settings for the App store. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
