How do I get rid of the LARGE advertisement in my messages that u can view in the group?
There is an advertisement in the message is VERY BIG square in the middle of the message when you view a message from the group, other owners have seen this on my group and can not figure why it is there. Its very hard on the eyes to read a message with the ad flashing within the txt of the message and sometimes covering the message. I have tried changing the 3 options availible to view message and its still there.
its a yahoo group: http://asia.groups.yahoo.com/group/movingtothephil...
the ads are in the group message not the emails

Is this in a Yahoo! Group?
I've never seen Large Ad's in my messages.
I've been a moderator since 2002. It might be the groups I moderate are Career groups.
Anyway, below is "sponsor" info from Group Help:

* What are Sponsor Results?
http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/groups/groups-65.htm...
- Groups sponsored listings are targeted to the topic (category) of the group, and not the content on the specific page or message you are viewing. The result is an ad which is often highly relevant to your group, but also one which respects your privacy! However, this is an automated system and sometimes it makes mistakes.
* What does the HTML Email Conversion feature do?
http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/groups/mypreferences...
- You can choose this option when you join a group or later by selecting Delivery Options within any group to which you belong. When you choose HTML Email Conversion, all plain-text email sent to you will be converted to HTML and will have HTML banner advertisements. Plain-text emails also contain text advertisements.
