If you get any pop ups saying “click here to remove a virus” (like that shown by Lbowron) – don’t do it! Close your browser (or restart your device if necessary) and it would probably be worth running an Anti-Virus (AV) scan afterwards (including on phones). There are some AV products that will scan iOS (Apple) and Android devices, some AV products/companies to look at would be (that I am aware of, but have not necessarily used – there are others):

AVG
Kaspersky
BitDefender
Sophos
McAfee
Norton
Avast
ClamAV
Panda

Also, I’ve still not received my iPad. 😕
