Website Shortcut keeps showing up on Home Screen

[Don Goffe]

Going nuts here. Did a factory reset a couple of times but no luck.

There's a short cut called "Web Games" that keeps showing up on my Home Screen. I cannot trace where it came from. The short cut opens a Website called "h5playlist.com" which is a simple HTML 5 based Game Website with a few random games. The Whois of the Website traces to a Chinese Domain Name Provider, ename.com, and the games are provided by a German HTML 5 Game company, softgames.de.

I have e-mailed both ename, and softgames but I'm not sure if they'll help. I have also tried to clean the phone with security software but nothing has helped so far.

Anyway, please suggest something, as this is bugging me out like crazy!

Thanks,

Don

This might be because of some un secure application what were installed on your phone. Only solution in this case is to reflash your firmware. Your phone manufacturer service center can help you with this.
