First things first.... There is no such animal as a virus or malware on the iPad, so you can put that worry out of your mind....

As for the ad, I'm assuming it's one of the banner ads that come up on TOTV. If that is the case, there isn't much you can do about it. Many of the ads that appear are remnants of items you have recently searched or read about on the iPad. In a few days, they will go away and be replaced by something more recent.

Additionally, these types of ads are allowed by TOTV and many sites, since they generate revenue for the site, should you click on one of the ads. This is one of the ways in which TOTV can remain free for all of us to use.

Hope this helps....
