Please post the advertisers who gave Yahoo money on a few of your previous questions. (simply go to your profile and bring up one of your previous question (something you were interested in) then look on the right side of your computer screen and see the way Yahoo sold your *personal* interest to the advertisers who sell what you are interested in.
This is how Yahoo works:
If you are interested in "left-handed" monkey wrenches, and you ask a question about "left-handed" monkey wrenches, then Yahoo will instantly sell your question to advertisers who sell "left-handed" monkey wrenches and the right side of your computer screen will be spashed with ads to purchase a "left-handed" monkey wrench .
(now, do we know what will influence Yahoo to stop letting people unfairly report us and delete our accounts?)

edit: I see that Yahoo sold this question to advertisers who sell "computer screen magnifiers".
To whom did Yahoo sell your last question?

Dear "robin" - thanks. Your comments were very enlightening.

Without looking I can say the advertisements were about Psychics and Spiritual Help. I always look at the advertisements to see what is going on with each question I post and the ones I answer. But it goes by whatever Code words you use in your question and details. Advertiser is a BIG word online and those who pay Yahoo the most to be on their Top Lists, with the word Advertise or Advertiser, will get those spots (I know, cause the company I work for advertises through Yahoo). Look up Electric Motor or Rewind Motor or Pool Pumps, Spa Pumps.... You just might see the company I work for... we pay a lot for the spot we get on there (I know, cause I'm the accountant).

I just posted a question asking where I could find pewter or brass horses for my grandaughters collection. I said I had found some at antique shops. I had a online antique shop, and a sculpture site. I just posted it, and I am going to check to see if they are the same.
Edit: They are really pushing the digital scales, they are on my, along with the first I mentioned. I had never noticed a link to click for information. so I tried it and it is a plug for you to use Yahoo ads to help your business.
