Default Keep getting virus style pop up on mobile site?unusable

Only on mobile scoobynet site I keep getting virus style pop up?
Doesn't happen at all on any other site and doesn't happen on full site mode.
It started a while back but not all the time but now it's every time I go on scoobynet on my phone.
The mobile site is unusable for me on my phone?
Any help appreciated.
Cheers Justin.

I looked into this a while back 'cus it happened with my phone for a while. From what i can gather it's a dodgie redirect embedded in the mobile version of SN, eventually it'll get picked up and removed but untill then I wouldn't bother trying to use the mobile site.

Well I'm glad I brought it up. I've now also downloaded app.
Only thing is it doesn't use the decals of scoobynet so it feels a bit generic. But at least I can use scoobynet again.

No problem, can't believe so many not using new app. The other one was rubbish.
