Before these last two betas (including the one released today), it was simple to remove ads. You would just delete the aolBuddyListAd.js file and relaunch and you’d be good to go.
Now, when you do that, the ad does disappear, but the space where the ad used to be is still there, but just blank. This is somewhat of an annoyance.
Anyone have any solutions?
I don’t know javascript at all, but I’ll do my best to find the value(s) you need to change. There’s a program out there which might do what you want, but I don’t recommend it at all.
I did a search to find files containing certain keywords, and it found a bunch so I’m going to start filtering through them to see if there’s a resize control in one of them. I’ll post when I find it!
WOOT! I found it!
Open the file bl.js located in C:Program FilesCommon FilesAOL1156377834eeservicesimAppver1_3_24contentbl using notepad. Right-click on it and click edit or open with… and select notepad. Do a search for “adContainer” and the very first occurrence you see, change false to true.
Bah, who needs aim ad hack when you have ME around!
