Redirect of Web page

[Timback]

How do you stop redirection of a Web page? Everytime I go to a Web page it redirects me to a android app to download, how can I stop this?
Thanks

Try resetting your defaults. It sounds like somewhere along the line you had the opportunity to select between the browser and app store and you selected app store as 'Always' which could cause this. Settings>applications>go to both your browser and play store and clear defaults. See if that works.

Does this happen with all links? If you open, say, Google Play links, they will always ask to be opened via the Play Store...

No not all links just some, especially Porn, it redirects you to boingo app,
And it won't let you get back to the page

Check the extension of the file or link you're trying to open, maybe that's the culprit (or the links themselves are redirecting you automatically). Also, check if you have the Boingo app installed and try clearing defaults for that App.
