The ads help keep the outlook.com service free. You can remove the ads - by paying for Ad-free Outlook.com. It costs about $20 per year. Have a look here:

    All free email accounts have Advertisements.

    Why microsoft made their adds with active x/ Animated when they are touched ?

    Very irritating to have a add pop out as if a user clicked on them and is mostly why I blocked the content.

    H,

    In addition, If you're using free Windows Live account, it is by default that there’s an advertisement on the right hand side of your Windows Live Hotmail page and to remove it permanently, you'll have to upgrade your account to either Hotmail Plus or MSN Premium account. If you're interested in subscribing to our paid accounts, please visit the following links:

    To upgrade your account to Windows Live Hotmail Plus, please visit:

    To upgrade your account to MSN Premium, please visit:

    Thanks,

    You can block the adds but not reclaim the space,

    Unless you want to Pay for a Plus account.

    Add this to your Restricted sites list,

    https://ads1.msads.net

    Gear symbol on the top right and Internet options (or Alt+TO)

    Security section and click on the Restricted site Icon,

    Then click on the Site button.

    Paste the about site in the box and click on Add,

    See a picture here,
