Ya I've tried all that. It doesn't work. It's still a giant pain in the butt to navigate Jazzfanz. It's so slow and sometimes doesn't even load the page. I have the Samsung Note3. It's a pretty fast phone. I don't have trouble with other websites either.

I do apologize. Short of a factory reset or using Tapatalk, I'm not sure what else we can do at this point, unfortunately. The advertising company is watching this thread and removing any ads we can find that would cause this...

Or he says give a little more to help him find the offending ad. The URL only (https://security-scan-ijhlmjwo.in/j...bb76992c425f3197b14d653d5203746fb436bb103e285), which doesn't go anywhere, might not be enough to find it.

it's just weird because I never had any issues with the site before. It just started when all the ads started. Now the ads have stopped, but the site is still slow. I did the hard reset but it was before the ads stopped. I'll try it again.I do apologize. Short of a factory reset or using Tapatalk, I'm not sure what else we can do at this point, unfortunately.

Guess I shoulda read this thread. I don't know the URL that it happens from, because it always redirects me. Got a porn site link from clicking on a thread in jazz forum. That's annoying. All this crappy game ads keep popping up too in the App Store on my iPhone in Safari.

Same ads are back. It's telling me I have viruses again, and trying to make me download apps.
The site is also still really slow even after another hard reset.
This is really a bummer Jason. It's so hard to use this site now. I don't mind ads, I know you want to make some money, but the way it's set up just sucks. I'm sure there is probably a difference from using a phone and a regular computer, so I can I only speak to phone use. It just flat out sucks now to use from my phone. Why not just have ads that are placed on the sides of the screen or in between posts or something? Like the ones you have a little bit of already? Personally, I don't think that's bad. I know the Facebook model was to not muck things up with that stuff like MySpace did, and maybe that's the same idea here. I dunno. I just would rather the site be dressed up with ads rather than ones that attack my phone. It's so annoying. Like I'm gonna buy something from someone who is trying to force me into it. I mean by that, the anti virus ad that keeps attacking my phone trying to force me into buying their anti virus app. To me, that company and app is the problem. What I need is an app that blocks that junk. That's what really would help. They are really the virus. It's so dumb to think that me or anyone else is gonna fall for that. It makes me despise the company tbh. It doesn't make me want to buy. Same goes for the other ads trying to force me into downloading games. Basically any ad that is overbearing and forces me to look at it or deal with it is not getting my money or time. I appreciate advertisers who aren't like this and I will give them a look and possibly my money and time. Like the ones that are at the top of the website and just give off a soft presentation. I do notice them.
That's my 2 cents on it.

So sorry. This slowness issue is concerning too though. I've yet to see that personally on mobile or desktop. Granted, my advertising profile is different than yours so the ads I see are likely different.
I didn't see in this thread but is there a reason you don't use Tapatalk?
I may experiment with you and a few others by removing all the ads and seeing where we land.
