Is it possible to get a virus on ipad? I'm browsing on safari and currently i'm getting spammed by a pop up for ilovemobi.com which looks like a scam to me. The worst thing is that it cant be closed. Anyone else experiencing this?

Nope my iPad mini 3 is not jailbroken.. Just using safari. I suspect someone hacked into my router as I noticed dns settings had been changed.

If your router's DNS settings is changed then why would it be the ipad that was hacked/virus? @@

I remember I jailbreak my ipad which allows using file manager apps.
After fee month, some of apps easy get crash and sometime it's shutdown own self. I believe jailbreak can cause many problem. Since then, didn't jailbreak and buy original apps
