Do You Want to Turn Off Or Disable Ads in AT&T Yahoo E-mail?? Read On!!!?

STOP THE AT&T YAHOO AD ONSLAUGHT!!

I was so annoyed by Yahoo ads I spent one week trying to disable them.

For the AT&T Yahoo browser, Kill the Popup. Here's the link http://www.killthepopup.com/

A Pando icon appears in your system tray. Click on it and set your proxy settings for Internet Explorer (i.E.) The AT&T Yahoo browser relies on I.E. for its functionality. Although the ad coding remains, the ad is gone!

For Internet Explorer, the I.E. 7 Pro add-on. Here's the link http://www.ie7pro.com/

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

http://dsl.sbc.yahoo.com/ which allowed me to access 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.

    You can also try Opt Out assuming AT&T is your ISP. Be certain to read everything carefully on the OPT OUT page linked below. In particular if you think you want to set up an access ID. Also be aware, if like me, you are consistently purging your browser of all the junk (cookies, and such) that such a purge may actually DELETE the OPT OUT choices you make as those opt out choice are installed on your computer via...guess what?....if you guessed a cookie you are so correct!!
