Apps with Adware

Hi gang
Just figured out how to figure out which program is generating those extremely annoying ads. In my case they pop up on the home screen and sometimes in the middle of a process.

When the ad pops up, press the 'recent apps' button. ie the square. The first app shown in the recents box is your mischief maker.

I did this, identified the bad app and deleted it, and the ads disappeared.

TO ADMIN Would it be possible to start a section where we can post adware apps to save others so much frustration with those bad guys?? It really ruins the experience.

TIA
