Do You Want to Disable AT&T Yahoo Ads?? C'mon It's an Easy 10 Points!!?

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.

Cheers!
