I understand that the ads keep Yahoo! mail free. But, when they play on the right side of the browser window or change, the actions disrupt my typing when I am entering a long message on my computer. Sometimes I have to stop and wait for the ad to change in order to keep typing.
I am using public library computers that use IE. I know FireFox has plug-ins. The ads may use shockwave or something like that. (That is a guess.)
Does IE have something like plug-ins where I can disable something in the IE Internet options to stop the ads? It is either that or I will have to compose longer messages in MS Word first, and then cut/paste them to Yahoo! mail.

What's also great about this is when you watch YouTube videos, it also removes all those ads as well along with countless other ads.
Hope this helps.
