The App Store opens spontaneously and it takes me to candy crush download page while browsing websites.

That happens because the site you're on has a popup ad that redirects you to the App Store. I see it most often with Candy Crush, but have seen it with other silly little games as well.

I will never play Candy Crush because of this, and any other app that uses these redirect ads goes on my blacklist as well.
