RANT* Those ** Yahoo answers ads

I know its not me or Tcs it's the Yahoo answers ads

Most times I click a forum or post IT pops up,and the page will not load at all,When I refresh the page and another ad comes on the page loads ok

But this just takes the biscuit,I had to refresh the page six times before it would load the page.

What is it with Yahoo....When they make these ads do they not understand that the majority of people (80+%) access through dial up.

Why can't advertisers make their ads so they don't interfere with things.

and while i'm on the subject of yahoo
I don't trust Yahoo,I have Yahoo mail and everytime I try to login to my mail the cursor ALWAYS skips to the yahoo id line when i think i'm typing my password and my password is displayed in my id line

Do these things happen to anybody else???

I have AT&T Yahoo I don't have any problems, some of the pages on here seem to be loading a bit slow though.

I've had that happen a couple of times too - very annoying!

Do you have a pop up blocker running? that usually stops the adds. I never get adds on yahoo and have my pop up blocker running.

What browser are you using? I used to get the Yahoo pop-ups with IE, and sometimes with AOL, but Opera blocks them. Have you tried switching to Firefox or Opera as your default browser?

I get the yahoo things too and I use firefox. They don't popup, they're just extra large ads at the top of the page, and its really annoying to have to keep refreshing. I thought I was the only one it happenned to

Install adblockplus from the firefox extensions page, click on the ad bugging you and it will make it go away

i have stopped using yahoo for everything but e-mail.
even with high speed access, there pages now likes to load to slow, to many graphics. and many of the ads are with sound and motion now.
