Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Spam!

[Pghpooh]

Grand daughter has a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
Every time she turns it on and uses it a popup comes up saying do you want to speed up your phone? There are other popups too. Is there a way to get rid of them???? Her parents also use the tablet and complain of multiple screens opening one after the other. I found many, many tabs and then closed them one at a time. I've used the tablet since I closed the screens and haven't had any other screens open other then the one I wanted. I have a feeling there are other problems but want to get rid of hose popups first them go on to another problem.
Any ideas on how to get rid of those popups?

I've had pretty good luck using AirPush Detector to figure out which apps are causing popups like the ones you are describing.

If your device is running Android 4.1 "Jelly Bean" or higher, you don't need this app anymore! You can just press and hold on notifications and your device will tell you who is generating them.

The Tab 2 10.1 is running 4.1 or 4.2, isn't it?

HI
It was running 4.1.... I went into the settings and, etc. and a window popped up saying updates were available. I let it run and it upgraded to ver. 4.2...
I used the tablet for about 30 minutes and my granddaughter had to go home. she took the tablet with her and I told "Mom" to use it and keep a eye on things and when something pops up, etc to WRITE IT DOWN. Then bring it back and I'll take another shot at it.

Push advertising is the future because the great masses of people are too apathetic to care. Apathy is the great killer of society. It turns people into mindless zombies who go where they are led and don't complain.
