Hi just wanted to let you know outcome of my plea for help. Thanks to those who tried to help me. I was advised by hotmail services to check my signature preferences and the advert was stuck to that, so once i deleted it and re signed my own name, the advert disappeared. Thanks again everyone and take care.---
