    It's definitely targeted at iPhones; maybe at Android too, but I haven't checked that. But I can visit CUK in Safari on a Mac and it's fine; switch Safari to send an iPhone User Agent header (this is done on the Develop menu, which can be enabled in Safari's Preferences' Advanced tab), reload CUK, and I get the redirect storm landing me on some vile spam domain; switch Safari back to using its normal User Agent header, visit CUK, and it's fine again.

              It’s still okay for me on Safari iPad.

                    The Tapufind browser high jacker has popped up again recently on my machine. No idea where it came from.
