Anyone else getting problems with Games of War ad?

Keeps taking me direct to Aps store without me clicking on it. Seems an automatic process. Had similar problems with a rogue ad on another sight and they had it removed. Only happens to me with the one ad and only when using IPad.

I'll look into this.

Thanks. The fanzine site for our local football club(sorry Soccer) had this problem with an advert that didn't meet their standards and were able to block it. Trouble is because it takes me straight into the Aps store the ad now appears nearly every time. I could block the ads but that isn't fair to you and sometimes there are ads I'm interested in. Brian

I know it probably only flashes by really quickly, but can you try to get the URL the ad takes you to right before it loads the app store?

http://adk2ads.ticta...ob.tictact.com? doesn't flash up but if you click to open it this is the identity that appears.

 

Goes then to mob.tictacti.com then to Aps store. Does this help. When I reported on the other site there first response was I had a virus but within half an hour twenty plus others said they had the same problem. That was a lot worse as it took you to sites you wouldn't want your children to go to! Took them ages to identify the culprit and to block them. 

 

What you are seeing as the link isn't what I types nor what I can see in edit mode.

Thanks for the info. I've made an attempt to block that ad - try now and see if it still appears.

Still there.............

 

Does it lead to the same destination URL?

now getting other ads, for various games and a dating agency all going straight to Apps store. No one else seems to have the problem so will check out Apples help pages.

Clearing your cookies might help get those off your back in the meantime.
