Several times when I've gone to links within threads I've gotten this:
The page at www.mobillean-tivirus.com says....and then it tells me my phone has 13 viruses and to follow the instructions to remove them. Needless to say...I haven't.

It looks like there's a dodgy ad somewhere on AB: http://www.androidauthority.com/mobile-scareware-ads-338182/ Email the Ed ( theeditor@theanswerbank.co.uk ) to let him know about it.

I am still getting it on my Hudl 2.
I ran Malwarebytes. That did not help.
I did a factory reset. That did not get rid of it either...., but, it has certainly improved the Hudl. No more screen freeze etc.
Seems the occasional factory reset could be a beneficial idea?

Still have it...still very FED UP. Notice the emphasis.
There is now also a small tick box "stop this page from creating more dialogues". What does that mean? I'm not touching it.
An rapidly becoming unusable because of this. I'd give up and not come back if I wasn't so horribly addicted lol
Hi,

We think we've found the network and turned it off in both places it could be accessing our inventory. Should be cleared up now.
You Da Man! You Da Man!

Errr...fingers crossed...ever hopeful ;-)
I still have it. Cleaned cache and history and ran Malwarebytes.
Still popping up!

I'm holding my breath at the moment. Whenever I start to feel safe...bam!!! It's back.
Erm...You WERE Da Man! You WERE Da Man!...
Question Author
Oh dear....
Email da Ed....
Thought my huddle was ok now and Bam, here it goes again.
I'm on laptop now for ab, so at least thats ok for now.
Pleeze, hope it gets sorted soon, driving me nuts.
further changes made
You WERE* Da Man! You WERE* Da Man! (* delete as appropriate)
Since the Editor's "further changes", my Hudl has not had any of the aforementioned intrusions.
So, fingers crossed, and well done, Editor!
Hi pasta, seems to be corrected now thank goodness! x
Yes well done to everyone concerned for sorting it out!
Question Author
OK...24 hours trouble free. Thanks Ed!!
We're turning the ad network on again after working out the problem. Please report any oddities here! We're keeping an eye until 5pm and then either turning off or leaving depending how we get on.

All the best,
I am getting my subscribed links into my junk spam
Hi JJ,

I think that is because we send so many. Is there a "not spam" button on your email provider?

What do you use for emails? Gmail? Yahoo?
