Russian roulette ads

Actually, the ads just seem now to pop up pretty much at random. I
can't figure out if they stay on the same messages on which they
appear, but I don't think so.

Yahoo must have had a *tremendously* negative reaction to the
omnipresent box ad... so now they're "sneaking them in" a little at a
time in a random manner.

Actually, these aren't quite so onerous and are almost (although
still annoying) rather humorous, since one never knows when they
will appear or with what. (The last one I saw seemed to have a woman
working at a laptop computer in her underwear...)

I don't see any. And I know the proxy I installed isn't working, since
wherever there _is_ an ad on some other page, I see the ad, as well
as the word "ADVERTISEMENT" -- neither of which I see here.

Hi Paul!

There aren't very many of them now, and they come and go like
fireflys...
