On the right hand side of my email I have an advertisement that was not there before. And I wish to turn it off, how do I do this?

Forget it. You can’t stop the Ads. AT&T and Yahoo screwed their customers again. We pay for ad free Mail Plus in our DSL fee, but AT&T and Yahoo decided to violate us and make more money putting ads in our email programs. Now they get our money and make us put up with the ads. AT&T says the fee only pays for the Address Guard and Spam Gruard Plus.

My Cable company will install their DSL next Wednesday. Then I’ll cancel my AT&T Yahoo DSL service, plus my AT&T phone service. I’ll use my cell for all my phone needs.

I was so annoyed by Yahoo ads I spent three days trying to disable them. Nothing worked for Internet Explorer (IE) or the AT&T Yahoo browser whose functionality relies on IE., until I downloaded I.E. 7 Pro add-on, which blocked the ads for Internet Explorer. To select the Ad Blocker settings, click on the I.E. Pro icon, which appears on your I.E. Toolbar.

Finally, I switched to Modzilla Firefox and set my home page to which allowed me to acess my AT%T Yahoo mail. I tried the Modzilla add-on, AdBlockPlus, but it disabled some content on my home page, so I deleted it!

For ads I selected in Modzilla Firefox, I right-clicked on the ad and chose the block option, which whited out the ad. If I wanted to see it (although I can’t imagine why!), I right-clicked again, chose ’select all’ and
clicked on the blue box, which appeared in the upper-left corner. If it didn’t take me to the web site, I chose ‘open link in a new window’.

You can also disable ‘external site images’ and ‘all images’ in Firefox, depending on your preferences.

I’m still working on the AT&T Yahoo browser!

Cheers!
