Unable to block a 'travelzoo' link in Yahoo Mail

Hello friends,

This is a copy of the link location which I am unable to block. To make it easier to read I have tabbed it down on 3 lines because it is so long. It also seems to have a number of different addresses within it:

http://uk.ard.yahoo.com/SIG=12pkjanf5/M ... ON/Y=UKIE/
EXP=1157543370/A=200544172/R=1/SIG=13f81ufbt/*http://ad.uk.doubleclick.net/clk;34165432;13259268;h?
http://www.travelzoo.co.uk/Signup.aspx? ... %20target=

By clicking on options in this advert link it basically just connects to Travelzoo.co.uk to sign up for a newsletter .......

http://www.travelzoo.co.uk/Signup.aspx? ... &id=255500

I have tried copying the whole string and tried copying just sections with * wild cards but the link still persists. The strange thing is that it does not have the usual Adblock tab above the advert.

Have you any ideas on how to block it?

Kind regards,

David

I guess that's a text ad. You might want to add the EasyElement subscription that takes care of things like this. Otherwise, these two filters seem to hide most of it:

Code: Select all

mail.yahoo.com#div(swads)
mail.yahoo.com#div(id^=ad)
