This is a great little utility Tim, but it causes a momentary pause when trying to view a webcam which I really hate. Any way of fixing this? About the chat transition ad, that guy who makes ytunnel knows how to get rid of it. Has anybody ever asked him how to do it?

When You block the webcam ADs you must keep the folder for the program were it is. the block.html is in the folder. and keys get set in the registry to blank.html.

you can always reblock the webcam Ads again, and it will fix it.

I think Yahoo patched 8.0.0.716's chat transition ad so its harder to block. but not sure

When removing the Webcam Ads a registry entry is added. The same method
has been used in the past to remove the Webcam Ads. Also when you view
someone's cam it connects to the Cam Server and connects to the Ad/s link.
The Ad/s are not stored on the Cam Server. So if you are getting a delay
then its most likely from the Cam Server. My program does not make any
changes to the Cam Server. As for the Transition Ad the normal method of
blocking it seems to no longer works. I am sure in time someone will find a
new way. Also remember that the Transition Ad is only displayed once each
time you start the messenger. As for your question about the programmer of
YTunnel. There is no need to ask him as he would probably reply to buy his
program if you don't wish to see the ads. I made my simple little program for
the people who do not wish to spend $17 on YTunnel.

Thanks for the replies guys. I was able to get rid of the momentary pause before viewing a webcam by doing what Chris said about keeping the blank.html file in the folder. Thanks for making this great little utility free for us Tim, as it is a waste of money in my opinion to buy Ytunnel as it never gets updated on time.
