blocked e-mail

Recently noted that if I click on new e-mail I get a blank window. I can
return to the message so it's not removed. The address on the blank screen is
"pixel.fetchback.com/timeout". Bing says this is some sort of advertising
program. Though I put this on my blocked senders list it had no effect.

How do I stop this or remove from my computer?

Thanks

You put 'pixel.fetchback.com/timeout' in your Blocked Senders list? AFAIK,
Blocked Senders only works on domain names (i.e., 'pixel.fetchback.com'),
not URLs (i.e., 'pixel.fetchback.com/timeout').

> .Actually did put pixel.fetchback.com in blocked senders list. No effect. Since only one sender produces this effect I suspect they are clients of fetchback. I think fetchback is supposed to create a new ad if you click on an ad and don't buy.Very annoying and if the sender "cutlery and more" doesn't respond they'll have one less customer.
