Hi I have never joined one of these things before but I am desperate for some help. I did a update on my phone yesterday and ever since then my phone is being absolutely flooded with adds and most of them have been about downloading (ad block) I don't know if they have created this mess or not but it's their adds that are driving me nuts. Since I started writing this I have had 5 interruptions. There has to de another way to stop all this without (6 now) using AD BLOCK. PLEASE HELP

Not sure what you updated, but sounds like you have a malware app. Can you delete the apps you recently downloaded?
Sometimes the app would make itself invisible. The easiest solution would be to reset the phone

Sounds like malware to me too. These apps hide well or ride on other legitimate apps. Factory reset is best way to go. Even antivirus apps don't usually locate them.

It is usually free games or free apps that carry this and not official Samsung apps and updates. I would start uninstalling one by one of free games for example, to pinpoint the culprit.
