That works, thanks. I was getting really tired of the "Silent Journey - Learn Meditation" ad. Something about my emails makes them think I need to meditate. I've already seen that same ad twenty times today. That's what I hate about ads: the repetitiveness. It's something about the repetitiveness that bothers me. If it wasn't for the repetitiveness it wouldn't bother me. They are just so darn repetitive.
I just found out why I got the same add on top of all my mails right next to the inbox bar. After I install "Dropbox" add-on for Yahoo mail, the add shows up. This is the first time I see the add. And I don't know how to get rid of it. Does anyone knows how to remove this annoyance?
Those ads are super-obnoxious. If they weren't blockable, that would be the last straw for Yahoo Mail. I didn't know that ABP could block page elements so I got rid of all the ads in Firefox with a little custom CSS. Got rid if the Yahoo logo too, since they pissed me off. Try this in your userContent.css file
Thanks, Rune Sommer!! I'm also using Chrome and noticed that my Yahoo mail changed to a new look today. It's not too bad, but the sidebar ads are obnoxious and annoying as hell! Webmail Adblocker works like a charm!
Click on the ABP icon in your browser and then go to "options". You will then need to make sure you are on the "filter lists" tab. At the bottom of this tab you need to un-check the box next to "Allow some non-intrusive advertising". Refresh Yahoo! page. Done.
I think if we all changed our email to another one and stopped using yahoo,they would get the message that we dont want this rude annoying addition. The adds down the side was quite enough. Yahoo you stink. lets have a revolution. stop using yahoo.
The new ad bar is indeed intrusive, irritating and initiates a desire to avoid all companies conducting such a practice - as I have indicated to several. Yahoo! is becoming expensive to use - its multiple movie - type advertising and now ad bars use up a limited byte quota. I am not against advertising (I teach good practice marketing). One response may be to switch to icloud.
