are you familiar with a "hosts" file?
it's where you computer looks FIRST for any network IP address.

it can be used to fool your computer into thinking that it's
actually another one [a bunch of them if so desired...].

an "outside" adverting provider [like doubleclick, etc...]
you obviously do NOT want to block yahoo!
too much technical babble to go through here...
