The iPhone Appstore highjacking ad is still around...in the last three days at every second or third page load for me. I literally had to kill the safari to stop redirecting, opening again it started again. Very difficult to get rid off.

Also new ones are opening pop-ups and whatever you do (Ok or cancel) will send you on a wild redirect hunt to either the Appstore or some cra*py ad-page. I did some screenshots of those:

Thank you I will pass those screen shots on to ad ops to see if we can block the ads!

Thanks IBobi, will report back if I see it getting better (or worse ;) )

Today I've been getting AppStore redirects on pretty much every page I try to load. Dozens of times.
Making the forum virtually unusable... Getting directed to Ladbrokes or Uber app and frequently getting "trace.682.co" in the address bar if that helps.
