How to stop stubborn L.Yimgs.com script?

For two days, L1.yimgs.com/zz/....has prevented me from the access to news commends. Sometime, I even can't read yahoo news and had to force the internet terminated because the script from that address refused to stop. NoScript didn't work on L1.yimg.com script. I cleaned the histories, caches and cookies. I used smart defrag. Not changed anything. The music from my closed website played whenever Li.yimgs.com/... script on. How can I get rid of it? Is it a new virus?

    That is something from Yahoo.

    Right click the NoScript "S" icon> move cursor up the pop menu to wherever that "L1.yimg.com" thing is located> left click "Forbid".

    http://noscript.net/features#contentblocking for more details on how to use it.

    Also these mod's help defray rubbish:

    FIREFOX: Tools> Options> Privacy> top drop slot set to "Firefox will use custom settings..."> Check 'Accept Cookies from sites'

    ►Un-Check 'Accept 3rd Party cookies'.

    A good collection of effective security & privacy add-on's (Official Mozilla) is here:

    "AdBlock Plus" (with 'subscription' added) helps.

    On IE:

    Open IE>tools>Internet options>Privacy tab>sites>Address of web site>L1.yimg.com>block.

    ying.com use a number of different .com like "ads.yimg" so you might want to add more yimg

    yimg also like to use Hypertext Transfer Protocol ads:

    open IE>tools>internet options>“Advanced” tab>unselect the “Use HTTP” check box>Apply>OK

    If yimg use flash:

    Open IE>tools>manage add-ons>shockwave flash object>disable

    (enable it when required)

    I would also run free adwcleaner:

    & in case its a java script delete java cache.

    also a scan with free superantispware would not go a mist.

    Go to an uninfected computer and download superantispyware onto a flash drive, load it onto your computer and let it run.
