Just a suggestion...close all your previously opened tabs in your safari browser and try and keep your fingers off the screen as you can pick up unwanted links quite easily using the touch screen. Don't loan out your Ipad to your kids either if ya get my drift:eek:

Should I disable safari? So much for apples don't need virus protection

It's not a virus. It's a browser hijack

Check your pm's.

I was told that if you type https, instead of http, that supposedly you won't get transferred somewhere else.

now you know all that I do. :D
