I have to agree with Jack and others on this, and further point out that there is no reason to deal with any of the pop ups. Just do what I do and follow the group postings by e-mail. Edit your membership to receive individual e-mails. (It may take Yahoo a couple of days to make the change.) Create a folder in your e-mail software and a rule to direct any mail coming from DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com to be moved to that folder. Also set your e-mail format to "text only" as Julian recommended. You then can view the group posting at your leisure without having to struggle through Yahoo's blizzard of advertising. As to who sees what pop-ups and why, I have no idea, but we all do get different ones. I speculate that it depends upon what particular Yahoo server you get logged into.
