Yahoo spam movies

In my Spam box in my Yahoo account appear various movies (adverts, really) which are a real pain. I daren't leave this account on Spam (have to return to Inbox) but even so, random movie ads will play in the background. I know this because they have sound - all is quiet for a while, then while I'm perhaps away from the laptop or in a different account (like Facebook or even GSC) - suddenly a spam movie will blare out. Quite startling, sometimes. And the laptop works slowly while it is thinking about what to do with the spam ad (before it starts playing and making noises).

I have a Yahoo ad blocker which stops random ads appearing in the Inbox - however, this doesn't (clearly) work with Yahoo's own spam ads.

Anybody got any suggestions, please?
