I can only tell you my phone is a Galaxy Stellar, takes me to candy crush, too.

I don't know enough about my phone to answer the rest of the questions......my daughter calls me technology inept.

Galaxy s2, Gingerbread (I believe), and it happens when I'm scrolling or opening a thread, it takes me to 'Candy Crush Saga' ro purchase the game.

Thanks for the help!

It does seem like it is a rogue ad that is impacting sites other than BYC. Now we have to try to track down the ad! If you happen to see which ad it is, what it looks like, etc. that would be good to know!

Ya, it's a terrible thing to do and we block anything like that. With that said, sometimes the bad stuff slips through our filters and we have to scramble to try and find out why.
