Is that the one that accuses you of viewing unsuitable content and asking for money to unlock it?
If so, we had that ages back on our laptop. We took it back to factory settings to get rid of it. |

To reset your phone to default factory settings:
Press and hold the following button:
Volume up + Power + Home.
This will bring up a small menu.
Using the volume keys navigate to "Wipe data/Factory reset"
This option should restore your mobile to its default settings.
hope that works? |
