The ucoz servers appear to be infected and its spreading to individual sites. When I visit my site using my phone I now get a popup window offering free downloads of various software. Also a spam comment was posted on the site by a guest even though guests do not have permissions to comment.
My site is http://thebakerboy.ucoz.com/

Pru, the uCoz servers are not infected, but individual sites may be. Please provide a screenshot of the popup and the link to the page where a guest was able to post a comment.

Thanks Sunny. This is a photo of the popup on my phone:


I've also had popups for mobogenie. There are no unwanted apps listed on my phone and a scan by AVG antivirus was clean.

I've deleted the guest comment but it was posted on the Home Page against this news item (comments are invisible to guests): http://thebakerboy.ucoz.com/news/2014-02-12-1575
I do have the text of the comment, its 6 paragraphs long with links to websites, but not sure if you want me to post it here and if so in what format.

When was the comment posted? If on February 13, then it was because of this: http://forum.ucoz.com/forum/9-18054-106025-16-1392370409
