advertising on my e-mail prevents me from reading my messages…this should be illegal to even have to ask how to get stalkers off the internet…that is all they are

First, you cannot remove the ads. they pay yahoo for that privilege so they are not going away. If you happen to be in ALL NEW MAIL click on OPTIONS on your email page and one of them will be to return to MAIL CLASSIC which has a larger email screen.
You can not stop all of the ads on Yahoo, but this may help you.
Immediately have your computer checked for a ‘bug’ or ‘bugs,’ in case you picked up adware or malware. If you have the proper programs, do the scans yourself, if not you need to take your computer to some one who can.
Once it is clean of pests, install a firewall and an anti-virus program if you do not have one yet.
I strongly recommend a program for malware and adware also.
Then open your Internet Explorer, and click on ‘Tools.’
Click on the last one in pop-up menu, ‘Internet options.’
Click on the ‘Privacy’ tab. The last item in the window is the pop-up blocker, make sure it is checked. Then click on the ‘apply’ button at the bottom, then click on the ‘ok’ button.
Result: no more annoying ads! And pages are loading much quicker too…:-)
- this adblocker for the IE (and other browsers) gets highly recommended in several forums.
… - for Safari Mac… - another solution for Safari 4 Win and Mac Yahoo Mail Plus does not have ads, but you pay $19.95 a year for that.
