Getting annoying action ads at the top of the Yahoo home page. I always use Firefox and did not change settings, so why the big ads? I know they are put there by Yahoo\ but they weren't there before and they are not there when I open Yahoo with Explorer.

The very annoying large ads with people walking around the screen finally stopped after about a day. I was going to try Adblock Plus but a lot of people had posted that the program was not as effective as it used to be so not sure it would have helped. If the ads come back, I'll probably give it a try anyway. Thanks.
