Discussion:
Advertisement in My MSN

I have paid for Hotmail Plus! for many years, including a second account
earlier this year, and never had advertisements in Hotmail or My Msn. Now,
there's a big advertisement window in the upper right corner of the My MSN
page. It is very distracting and annoying! It's always where I've had my
weather module.

Is there a way to get rid of it? Otherwise I won't be renewing my two
Hotmail Plus! accounts.

I have MSN Premium through Qwest DSL and I don't get this on
http://my.msn.com/. The weather module is right where it should be. I
suggest you contact Customer Service for the answer to your question if no
Hotmail Plus! subscriber answers here.

Hotmail has nothing top do with it. It's an MSN thing. I have seen that
advertizing on MyMSN for a couple of years and have never used Hotmail.

This will get rid of that advertizing and a lot more:

That ad has been present for quite some time for Hotmail Plus accounts on 'my msn'

It is not present for MSN Premium accounts. Hotmail Plus, unfortunately, is not an MSN Premium subscription.


Fyi....the ad is not present in the Hotmail web UI(hotmail.com or mail.live.com)
- Hotmail Plus no ad applies to email, not 'my msn' which is a different service.

I haven't been to My MSN all year. I've been using My Yahoo on a Mac
computer. Recently I decided to consider going all Mocrosft...get a new
Windows 7 computer, use Hotmail and My MSN full time. But I'm still having a
spam problem with Hotmail, and then find that My MSN now has an advertisement
right where I don't want it. I don't have these issues with My Yahoo and Mac
mail. I guess I'll stay with what I've been using.

MyMsn has two operating modes.
One without a Live ID, one with a Live ID.

The former is configurable/customizable only to the extent supported by settings capable of storage in a cookie. The latter has
additional capability by cookie(s) and server stored content.


My.live.com, a different option suggested previously for a home page, loads here on IE6(XP), IE7(Vista), and IE8(Windows 7).
No redirect to Bing at this end.
- Possibly a difference in security or cookie settings ? Everything(security and cookies) is set to default on all machines and no
sites added to Trusted or Cookie Privacy settings.

Loading my.live.com the first time yields a page with these options
<qp>
Personalize my.live.com
My.live.com brings your online world together in one place, from news to photos to mail.
To get started, select the pages you want to add. Next, you can add additional content or change the layout.

Basics
News
Sports
Entertainment
</qp>

At the bottom of the first time loaded page is a 'Next' button that creates a page the above as four tabbed pages(Basis, News,
Sports, Entertainment) and an Add a Page option. It like MyMsn without use of Live ID signon is customizable and retainable to
the extent that settings can be stored in a cookie. Sign on with a Live ID increases the customizable options with cookie and
server stored
content. Sign on with a Live ID adds the primary capability for the my.live.com customized settings to 'travel with the user' (i.e.
to different computers or mobile devices)


Fyi..I earlier referred to the items on my.live.com as modules, the correct term is gadgets.

I use Chrome because it doesn't crash or hang nearly as often as IE8. It
doesn't show Inbox subfolders in Outlook Web Access and now this. Other
than that it is much more stable than IE. The page doesn't have the big
objectionable ad, that is true.

I haven't been to My MSN all year. I've been using My Yahoo on a Mac
computer. Recently I decided to consider going all Mocrosft...get a new
Windows 7 computer, use Hotmail and My MSN full time. But I'm still having a
spam problem with Hotmail, and then find that My MSN now has an advertisement
right where I don't want it. I don't have these issues with My Yahoo and Mac
mail. I guess I'll stay with what I've been using.

That ad has been present for quite some time for Hotmail Plus accounts on 'my msn'
It is not present for MSN Premium accounts. Hotmail Plus, unfortunately, is not an MSN Premium subscription.
Fyi....the ad is not present in the Hotmail web UI(hotmail.com or mail.live.com)
- Hotmail Plus no ad applies to email, not 'my msn' which is a different service.

I have paid for Hotmail Plus! for many years, including a second account
earlier this year, and never had advertisements in Hotmail or My Msn. Now,
there's a big advertisement window in the upper right corner of the My MSN
page. It is very distracting and annoying! It's always where I've had my
weather module.
Is there a way to get rid of it? Otherwise I won't be renewing my two
Hotmail Plus! accounts.
