please stop the malicious ads from running script on Yahoo...
Your team claims to have addressed this problem earlier in the suggestion "An increasing number of yahoo articles have links that automatically redirect to hijacking sites." but it is not fixed. I still continuously have my browser hijacked and it happens only when I am on Yahoo site. I can only think you are allowing ads to contain malicious code. Please note I am not clicking on any ads or external links when it happens...only visiting yahoo homepage or news article links.

And another is your Yahoo Lifestyle article entitled, "Rep.-Elect Ilhan Omar responds to minister saying Congress will look like an Islamic republic," and Twitter is here for it. COMPLETELY INFECTED. Didn't stick around for the URL when it locked up my page and threw up its fake, "Your computer is infected, click here to repair it" message.

Hi here's one. There are dozens more though. Your QA staff should be activating EVERY link and checking them before they show up on the news pages. Most take control of the viewers screen and only a "control, alt, delete" will stop them. Almost every one loads an average of about 50 pieces of spyware, as indicated in the Superantispyware sweeps I do after encountering them.
The title is; "Democrats fall short of ousting New Hampshire Secretary of State".
And here is the URL;https://news.yahoo.com/democrats-fall-short-ousting-hampshire-215257700.html;_ylt=AwrC1Cn9nglcrTIABCXQtDMD;_ylu=X3oDMTBybGY3bmpvBGNvbG8DYmYxBHBvcwMyBHZ0aWQDBHNlYwNzcg--

I am receiving malicious ads when try to access yahoo mail via internet explorer from my desktop. These ads redirect from the Yahoo mail page to a fake virus scanner. This only happens on Yahoo mail.

I will second this comment. Now your news page itself is bugged. I got hit just scrolling down the page to see what the stories of the day were. Didn't even NEED to click on one to actually read it. Your team needs to check every story link BEFORE putting it up for public consumption. Thank the gods I've got Malwarebytes to block the worst before they can do damage, and Superantispyware to remove the tens to hundreds of bits of adware that automatically download. I do like the comment boards, BUT, you have got to get control of the hijacking, or I'll have to change home pages.
