>>of course, if you are assuming the entire population of the net will be too stupid to learn how to change the default homepage of their browser, then maybe they wont be able to spark two neurons together and block ads with many of the available programs. but then again, I try to give the average joe more credit than you. Wow. Well. Gosh. I must be wrong. Tell me something, speed-demon. Have you turned-off image-autoload on your browser? Have you disabled Java? My bet is you haven't, and those options are free and available this instant. I think your opinion has more to do with looking for a fatal flaw in Yahoo's business model (and your eight-point overnight decline) than championing the average Joe's bandwidth problems. I don't think Joe has made those choices either.
