Who hates Yahoo, and Yahoo Mail.

Hi,

I noticed that Yahoo Mail has annoying ads on the right side of the screen. Think they are Adaware. 

 

Anyway, if I pop them out to the by using the > arrow, they come back 2 seconds later when they load. I think this is bullshit because I popped them to the right off of the screen & don't want to see them again. Yahoo is the only E-mail I'm having trouble with. New ads should not come back.

 

Also, it hangs when typing like it did back in the Windows 98 era. I'm running on a FX 8350, 16 GB memory, R290X GPU, & Samsung 256 GB 840 Pro. WTF is wrong with Yahoo. They suck. 

 

Unfortunately,

It's a pain in the ass to move all contact to Gmail to get them to use Gmail account. Or even my Live account since it's linked to Windows 10 & Me.

 

Wonder if Yahoo it's self has Adware, Malware, & Spyware. I'm trying to veer away from it.

 

Any opinions or facts. I know it has been attacked several times in recent past. I don't think that it is safe to use it anymore.

I'm rather sure Yahoo took care of everything. Ads are normal, just use as blocker.

I still use them for an older email for services that I can't migrate.

I've had my junk account for something like 15 years with them. It'd be better if the UI wasn't slow as fucking balls. Okay Yahoo, obviously you're showing me my mail, now that they're selected delete the fuckers already.

They suck. I was only able to delete 50 E-mails at a time, after putting recent into archives and then back again. I came to find that it had a 50 Email ceiling.

 

Sucks that I have other accounts tied to them like New Egg.

 

Oh,

I have had my computer just restart will using Yahoo E-mail. Than had Malware. Oh, and my point is ads. They load while you are typing and cause locking on the page. If it that slow, It might be easier to hack.

 

Google, No Ads! It just works.
