How can I get rid of this Yahoo Updates box?
Every time I post an answer in Y!A, I get the following message box:
Your answer has been posted to Yahoo! Answers
An update about your answer will be shared outside of Answers.
Manage who sees your updates
Don't show this message again on Yahoo! Answers
OK
I've tried to stop it by un-checking the "share my updates" option in my profile and I've clicked on the "don't notify" me option for Y!A (also in my profile), but I still get this box. I've also been checking the "Don't show this message again" option in the box, then clicking on OK... it doesn't help either.
Please tell me how to get rid of this annoying message! Thanks!!
fyi... it also popped up when I asked this question.
~~~ GOOD NEWS, FOLKS!! ~~~
I did a bit more digging and came up with a resolved question, and this solution did the trick! There are TWO places you need to update to get rid of the box. Here's the link:

I know how you feel...it happened to me, too...
You can't get rid of it...it just disappears after a while...
