I had a problem a few months ago that the Guardian newspaper website kept resulting in my phone being sent to a site that tried to exhort bitcoins from me “to unlock your phone”. In fact deleting that page in the browser was enough to escape. But I couldn’t read the newspaper! It only did it when I was on WiFi and hence using Virgin Media’s DNS servers and it didn’t happen if I turned off the WiFi in the phone and connected via Vodafone 4G. My iPad wasn’t affected, because it was using the desktop site rather than the mobile site.
Ultimately I solved the issue by telling my phone to use Google DNS servers instead of Virgin Media’s. And then I started using the Guardian app which is better on a phone than the mobile version of the paper anyway.
So my suggestion would be to change the DNS settings in your iPad.
The issue here is that the website 10audio.com has been compromised by malicious scripts, sql injection maybe? It used to be a common problem with developers writing insecure scripts that were easily attacked.
Clearing the cache/power off etc won’t do anything as the problem is with insecure aplication allowing script injections on their server.
So some of its pages are being returned with links to the viagra (injected) whilst some go to the correct pages.
The site is running on an outdated version of Drupal 7.26 (should be V9) so very vulnerable to script hacks
Please contact the site owner and get them take action ASAP.
The apple dealer confirmed me that, it’s a site problem, not iPad settings.
I tried to reboot it, switch off and on, clear the cache before, tried different settings in Safari, went by google, google chrome and also Safari: still the same.
Anyone here use the IPad Pro 2018 or 2020? Can try to open “ 10 audio. com” site?
Nothing to do with DNS, but they are under network settings
@raym55 ste has been compromised via malicious scripting taking advantage of out dated software Drupal V 7.26 hopelessly out of date and vulnerable to SQL script injection.
Site owner needs to take down files from host server, update Drupal then re-install site files as attacker may have left a backdoor on the server.
Part 2 of your queery, I understand you want a bookmark on the desktop? so probably just a matter of visiting site, and tap the “+” icon to the left in the address bar.
Yes, I feel you are right. I responded you previously, when the iPad dealer responded. But I don’t understand how it can work on some iPad models and not other.
Are both iPads on the same iPad OS version and hence same Safari version? Different browser versions/types may be more or less vulnerable to certain online threats, and there have long been compatibility issues between browsers that web designers have had to work around, though things are hopefully improving.
There might be other factors such as tracking cookies that could make you more of a target to redirects for certain things.
Hate to suggest it, but does targetting a hi-fi related site imply that visitors to such sites may be of an age where nature could do with a helping hand?
