Default Candy Crush...

Alright... this is getting very annoying and weird. I have cleared everything from my history on my phone. I am in the default setting, not mobile and the google play store will randomly open to candy crushes download page. It ONLY happens when I am browsing ls1tech through this setting. Wtf is this ****? It doesnt do it on any other website, app, ect.

This may be a rogue ad in the pool. This behavior, with that game, has been reported before on other websites. Try clearing your cookies and cache (not just history). The issue may appear until the ad is located. If you can note exactly which ad (top or bottom) appears to trigger it, it will be faster and easier to resolve.

I cleared everything before I posted this and it still occured. I would just be browsing the site and it would randomly pop up. I'll keep my eye out to see what ads are on the screen before it does it. I'm just pissed that its automatically directing me to the play store without my permission and if it can do that, I'm curious as to what else it is capable of.
