The chances of a virus actually storing itself onto your iPad are very remote due to the fact that the iPad does not save malware/viruses or any other types of programs onto its SDD.

But if it should happen on the rare case, do the following:

RESTORE YOUR IPAD:

First thing to do is to get the most recent version of iTunes, if you don't have it already. Just visit the website of Apple and download the setup.

Got the iTunes now? Make a connection between your iPad and your computer and open the iTunes.

After that, simply select the Summary option.

Now, select the restore button.

When you have selected that option, you will be asked from iTunes to make a backup of your device prior to restoring. Select the Back Up option after that or select Don't Back Up if you already have the backup.

Now, select the restore button.

Your iPad should now start restoring to default factory state. When it is done you will see the logo of Apple and the device will start up.

After your iPad is started up, you will see the option "Connect to iTunes" which will vanish after the connection has been made again.

Following that, you will see another option "Set up your iPad". Now select to restore your backup, select the backup data and then select "Continue".

Can you see the result now? Your iPad is now purified from the viruses. Enjoy your revived iPad and follow the above steps again if your iPad is attacked from any ipad virus in future.
