Have an iphone? Help WSO detect script...

Hey guys, some users complained last week of being redirected to "Pet Rescue Saga" by King.com when browsing on their iphones...2 questions.

1. Is this still happening for you?

2. Can you give me any other details?

Thanks!

Was being redirected to some website while browsing WSO on my PC as well a couple of days back. Hasn't happened since the past 1-2 days though.

Don't browse WSO on my phone so can not comment on that.

 

I'm not having the issue on my iPhone. It's a 5 running iOS 7.0.3.

Currently: future neurologist, current psychotherapist Previously: investor relations (top consulting firm), M&A consulting (Big 4), M&A banking (MM)
 

It happens to me on the iPhone 5. I have not found any real cause so unfortunately I cannot offer any details. It just randomly will send me there when on WSO. Does not happen on any other websites. It will also sometimes send me to a game other than pet rescue, although I have never actually even read the name (just close it asap). I will pay more attention and see if I can help out.

 

Okay, I think I found a link. It happens right before the "install this web app on your iphone..." slides down. To get it to happen, I do the following:

1) close all web programs 2) clear history, clear webdata 3) wso.com happens once (clash of clans, supercell) click recent happens twice (same game).

My guess is whatever program you're using to slide down the add this app (which I hate by the way - I added recent posts and it still asks every time) is doing it.

 

This happens to me constantly. Along with the "install this app" slide down, it makes browsing this site all but impossible on mobile - at least impossible to do without getting extremely and consistently frustrated.
