Yahoo Mail Cleaner

Yahoo e-mail account-holders are familiar with the irritation of losing nearly one-fourth of the width of the browser workspace to advertisements. Grit your teeth and bear with it if you want a free web-mail service was the unspoken message. Now, for Firefox users, there's a way around this. First you need to install the Greasemonkey extension. Greasemonkey is one of the best extensions available for Firefox. It enables the user to customise the way web pages display by installing scripts. Once you've installed Greasemonkey and re-started Firefox, install the Yahoo Mail Cleaner script available here. Re-start Firefox and go to your Yahoo Mail. Abracadabra, hey presto, no ads and a full width message reading experience. Firefox's customisability wins hands down again. If you're still using Internet Explorer, do yourself a favour - get Firefox.
