Safari redirecting to **** site

This started happening December 2011.
Whenever I click on a link in one of my e-mails and the link opens on Safari, the original page I intended to see will load and stay there for a while, and then Safari will automatically redirect to one of two sites, either sexgoesmobile.com or something called VOB something. I have never visited these pages before on my phone (or anywhere else for that matter), and I have my phone constantly with me so I know that no one else has viewed these pages on my phone.
It's not a pop-up, it's redirecting - Safari doesn't open a new page. About 10% of the times I open a certain link, Safari won't redirect and I'll be able to read what I want in peace, but the other 90% it happens.
I've tried cleaning cookies and browser history, restarted my phone and the iOS is updated. I don't know what else to do.

I would restore as new, i.e. without yor backup.  You'll then need to re-setup your email, reinstall your apps and resync your iTunes library.

    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
      least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Go to Settings>Safari and Clear History, Data and Cookies

  • Safari Redirected to Adbaaz website

    Hello all,
    I'm using an iBook G4 with Safari browser. Recently, Safari would automatically redirects itself to Adbaaz website with the keyword of the webpage that I intended to go to. This would happen if I would want to go to a forum, clicking a link from a google search page, to a blog, or even some online newspaper website.
    On some days, the same website i.e www.yahoo.com will load properly, but on some days it will be redirected.
    I have checked with other users within my company and some have reported that they were facing the same problem as well, although they are using Windows and not Macs.
    I have googled for some solution but have found solutions for Windows. The link could be found here :
    http://www.boldinteractive.com/2007/09/24/adbaazcom-redirects-sites-using-tracki ng-code-supplied-by-websourcedtrafficcom/
    but no solution can be found for a Mac user.
    I have also checked whether I have the OSX.RSPlug.A Trojan (not that I have installed any codec whatsoever) just to be sure following the advice from here :
    http://www.macworld.com/2007/10/firstlooks/trojanhorse/index.php
    but my Mac is clean.
    Tried using ClamXAV to detect any spyware/malware/virus/trojan but even after clearing/fixing the findings, the problems still persists.
    I am connected through an Ethernet to my company's server which gives out the DNS. Not sure which OS is the server running on though.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    This is a shot in the dark but check to make sure. With Safari open, click Safari/Preferences/General in the Menu. With the General tab open, where it says; New window open with... if the pop menu shows: Homepage... make sure the Homepage url isn't the url redirect address.
    Carolyn
    Also... try using a different user. If you are the only person who uses your Mac and you use just the admin account, go to System Preferences/Accounts and create a new account. Name it Test.. or whatever want. Then log onto that account and see if Safari redirects to that url. If not, then the issue is isloated to just your Home Folder admin account and not system wide.
    Carolyn
    One more thing... try doing a Search with Spotlight. Use keywords like Network Solutions/Adbaaz
    Look here for preference files: /Home/Library/Preferences. See if there is a preference file that looks similar to this: com.Adbaaz .plist (It may not be worded exactly like that but that's close)... trash any files with that name.

  • Click close button in infopath form shuld be redirect to site page not a list by default

    Hi
    I am custmizing a list in infopath
    i created a view created by user and
    i created a site page and assigned a created by user view to a webpart on this page
    here i need when this list opens in edit mode , when i click close button this form shuld be redirect to site page
    now its rediricting to list>all items
    all items is default view for this list
    adil

    Hi adil,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you wanted the redirect to another page once InfoPath form had been closed.
    You can add a Content Edit web part above the InfoPath form web part with the following code:
    $(document).ready(function(){
    if($('#DialogFinalMessage').children().length>0)
    window.location.href = "<Desired destination page URL>";

  • Why does Safari's Top Sites open when I click on View in iTunes?

    For some reason, whenever I click on a link in Safari that requires another application to open, (iTunes for example), now a new browser window opens to Safari's Top Sites page.  It appears to have started after the recent update. Anybody else having this problem?  Is there a solution? 

    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.

  • My MacBook Pro won't load any websites on Safari (except this site, Facebook and Google), Opera, or Mozilla Firefox. I already did the "Reset Safari", restarted the computer half a dozen times, and I can't find this alleged "caches.db" file to delete.

    My MacBook Pro won't load any websites on Safari (except this site, Facebook and Google). Opera and Mozilla Firefox won't load any sites whatsoever. I already did the "Reset Safari" several times, restarted the computer half a dozen times, and I can't find this alleged "caches.db" file to delete. I virus scanned the computer with Sophos, Avast, and iAntiVirus and it looks clean.

    Is iAntiVirus the best virus protection to use for a MacBook?
    The best anti-virus protection is your own common sense, and what you already bought and paid for with your Mac. Third party products such as "iAntiVirus" convey no additional benefit, and as you already determined are very capable of causing trouble.
    OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
    A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
    Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac. Without exception, they will do the opposite.
    Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources. Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
    Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
    Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
    Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
    Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
    Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
    Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
    Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
    Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
    Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
    Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
    Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
    Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
    Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
    If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
    Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
    The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
    OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
    Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
    If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
    Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
    Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
    Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

  • I open safari and one site takes me to their app in the store automatically.  How can I prevent this?

    I open safari and one site takes me to their app in the store automatically.  How can I prevent this?

    some sites that use flash (or other issues) dont want you trying to view the site in your browser on an ios device, because they know it will not be a good experience - they detect your device, and if it is an ios device  they want you to use their app instead of your browser.

  • Need JavaScript for Sharepoint Designer 2010, to show a Pop-up to all the users between date range and the redirect the site

    Dear all,
    I am very new to Sharepoint designer 2010. Its better to say, i am just stepping in.
    I have sharepoint site which is accessible for all the users to update few information. But i want this site not to be accessible during a date range, say from 15th to 20th of every month.
    I am planning to have something like this: If any user tries to access this sharepoint site between 15th to 20th date range of everymonth, then the browser must show an pop-up alert saying "This site is not accessible during this date range" and Redirect
    this sharepoint site to someother site (Say http:// somesitename.xx.com) immidiately.
    I know very little about how to add Javascript in sharepoint webpart.
    Please provide the Javascript or any best alternate solution to my concern.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    From your description, my understanding is that you want to redirect sharepoint site to another site between 15th and 20th every month.
    I agree with what Sudip says. If you still want to use JS code,You could try these steps
    below:
    Open your site with SharePoint Designer.
    Click Master Pages in left navigation.
    Find file v4.master, and backup it(it is very important).
    Right click your v4.master,
    choose "Edit File in Adavance Mode".
    Add the code below into the <head/> tag.
    <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script
    type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function(){
    var today = new Date();  
    var day = today.getDate(); // get current day
    var id = _spPageContextInfo.userid; // get the id of current logon in user
    var boolFlg = false;
    $.ajax({
       url: _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/web/SiteGroups/GetByName(\'"+"sharepoint Owners"+"\')/Users", //get users in a specified group can access the sharepoint site from 15th to 20th every
    month
       type: "GET",
       headers: {"accept": "application/json;odata=verbose"},
       success: function (data) {
          if (data.d.results) { 
             var src = data.d.results;
             for(var i = 0; i < src.length; i++){
                if(src[i].userid==id){ //check the logon in user in  the specified group or not
                   boolFlg = false;
                   break;
             if(!boolFlg){
                if(day <= 20 && day >=15){
                    alert("This site is not accessible during this date range"); // alert the message
                    location.href = "http:// somesitename.xx.com"; // redirect to another site
       error: function (xhr) {
          alert(xhr.status + ': ' + xhr.statusText);
    })</script>

  • Desktop safari redirects to mobile websites

  • Safari redirected to giveaway site (free IPAD etc.), cannot reset home page

    On a new (3 day old) IMac Safari is automatically opening with a 'Giveaway' site that I cannot for the life of me eliminate. It looks like I may have picked it up when I accidentally misspelled Google when I was setting my homepage. Now I cannot reset the homepage, and I assume this site uses the misspelling as a gateway to load whatever it is that is causing the redirection, Scanning with ivirus, McAfee, and Norton has not resulted in detection. Any ideas or help?

    As for your homepage, try troubleshooting the Safari plist file.
    Quit Safari if it's open.
    Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
    Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
    Launch Safari. If you can set your home page now, move that .plist file to the Trash. If not, move it back to the Preferences folder.
    If that didn't help, from your Safari menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 boxes, click Reset.
    FYI...  Norton / Symantec has been the cause of Safari crashing for years. Try a search in this forum to see the results. If you insist on having a/v software installed, keep McAfee but try uninstalling Norton. Most users end up having to erase the hard drive and start over. One a/v software installed is one thing, but two is overkill and will slow that brand new Mac drive down to a crawl. Scanning for a virus won't do any good. There aren't any Mac viruses.
    It's probably Norton that is causing the re directs or your ISP.

  • Safari Redirecting Automatically

    Okay,
    I've been having a problem with my Safari browser on my iPhone 3GS. Whenever I visit a certain site (yes, it's a family friendly site) my Safari browser gets redirected to an advertisement for a not-so-family-friendly site. The phone is not jailbroken, and though it is connected to a wireless network, neither of my other computers are having an issue. I also disconnected the phone from the wifi and got the same results on Safari with the same site using my network provider. I cleared the cookies and history, then restarted to no avail. I even restored the phone to factory settings and that didn't help. Please, can anyone help me figuring out what's going on? I'd really love for this issue to go away! Thanks!

    If you tried the website in factory settings, than it has nothing to do with the phone and it would be the website! Websites can be different for mobile. Example: Google has a site for computers, and a different site for mobile. That's been my experience anyways, so maybe the site you want to go to is not avialable for mobile, and safari routes you to some site that has the same title. Not fair, but its a possibility

  • Safari redirect hijack - may have iOS5 virus or trojan

    This morning, while clicking on a link on a website, I was redirected to a **** site. Not so unusual, eh?
    Except this was on my iPhone 4s, running iOS 5 and Safari, and the same link is good on my Mac desktops.
    Clearing data, history, caches, and a reboot does NOT fix the problem.
    It appears that there is a virus or trojan on my iPhone. Any ideas?
