BT Yahoo Mail - annoying advert

toshkininny

Hi, sorry to be thick , but any idea how to get rid of a really annoying advert that is there every time I look at my mail. It opens up large every time I accidentally roll the mouse over it, and is VERY IRRITATING!!!

Thank you!

I noticed this for the first time yesterday. There was no way to close the advert and the only way I could read my mail was to reload yahoo mail. I agree, very annoying!!

I log into my btyahoo several times a day and not noticed any large adverts.

It all depends just how annoying and intrusive you find adverts.

so much does all that you suggested cost? Or is it a rare freebie?

Firefox is a free web browser, just google for it.

And no-script and add blocker are free add ons

I had to disable my adblock plus on some pages as otherwise they wouldn't load. However I do have flashblock as well - a winning combo.
