Aggravating pop up

When using a mobile device does anyone get the arbitrary marvel comic cyclops banner while in the middle of clicking on or scrolling through posts in a particular forum. How do you stop it? Really ticks me off sometimes. Is it for add/chick revenue for CF?
Help s appreciated.

Post a screen capture of the ad showing what the issue is. Also list if this is the dedicated app or the mobile skin using a browser as there's a big difference between the two.

My Android device with native browser gets redirected to "You have a virus!" pages when on CF. Only site that does this. Multiple antimalware finds nothing.

I am using chrome on Android Lollipop and get all the fake "your phone has a virus" screens and variants all the time. Using the garagetalk app has stopped this though.

I think I fixed this with Settings-cache-clear data.

I'm still getting these frequently, even when I have cleared the cache within the last few days.
