Yahoo ads. If adblock plus is earning dollars to allow yahoo to spam our emails with ads, they should tell us. It is impossible to force an update on IE and the ads are intrusive and in a very bad spot. Honesty on the part of Ad Block would be wonderful So far, they are ignoring this problem. I am getting angry with yahoo posting these ads over my email.

No. ABP does not permit intrusive advertising.
More, you can choose if you permit the acceptable ads or not.


If you are talking about that ad on top of your inbox, that one is difficult to block / hide in ABP for IE.
see here the ticket I opened on the bug tracker.
https://issues.adblockplus.org/ticket/1642

So, we are in waiting for a fix from the devs.

That ad is hidden in ABP for firefox and chrome.
