It's been raised a few times, but nothing seems to get done about it.

Drac - I dont think it happens if you're a logged in premier user.

ssboggy - care to check you're logged in on your phone or not?

Used to browse STW through Opera mini on a Nokia - never had a problem.

Just moved to a LG/Android and getting the amazon stuff coming up now... 😕

Coding changes don't happen overnight and even less so if they're hard to simulate, there's also speculation that it may not be exclusive to STW.

Could be.

Doesn't happen on the opera browser, only standard android browser

Mark does have the ability to pull all Amazon banner ads until the problem is fixed though...if he wanted to...

Been browsing logged onto the site with an iPhone for approx two years, and I've never had a problem with being taken to Amazon. Scrolling down sometimes I'd inadvertently touch one of the sidebar ads and find myself on Chain Reaction or Wiggle, but that's a touchscreen issue.

It seems predominately an Android issue, but I'm sure I read on one of the other threads, other OS users had experienced it.
