    Junk Popup in Safari preventing back/forward/newpage/etc

    Recently I started getting a pop up in safari (happens about once a week give or take) stating Ive won a prize from getfreebies dot org and that I need to click OKAY (which I NEVER DO), the only way to get out of it is to leave Safari, close it out completely (removebg in sbsettings), then go back to safari and quickly open a new url before it gets a chance to reload itself. Dont know if I have some sort of ad virus or not. Ive attached a screen cap of what Im getting, (another strange thing to is that is says ANDROID and not iphone)

    ps I have BLOCK POPUPS Enabled in settings.

    reboot your iPhone and reenable pop up blocker. if that doesn't work theres pop up blockers and ad blocker tweaks in cydia i believe.
