For now please consider viewing the site on the Desk Top version from your mobile device. I'll update this thread as progress news is made available.

how do you not have control of your own site?
what a joke.

hopefully everyone here realizes evom has no control of their own site and doesn't use the same password here as anywhere else.

I understand your frustration as I’m in the same boat. Try this ad blocker:

https://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/1blo...025729002?mt=8

It uaually takes a couple tries, but this the first time I could access the site on IOS. IB is hoping to implement a new ad blocker early next week. These redirects are not unique to IB, I hope that helps.

I've been getting these a lot recently. Be careful closing these because hackers can easily program the x or cancel to accept and download viruses. I usually close my window altogether by closing the program.
Bottom line:
Avoid using the x in top right corner and the "Close" or "Cancel" buttons since those can be reprogrammed.
