When I click on a link on a website so I can e-mail to someone it goes to
Outlook Express which I do not use. I use Yahoo. I have gone to internet
options to make yahoo my defalt but under programs yahoo is not listed as an
option. I have also tried setting the defalts button with no results. What do
I have to do to get yahoo listed as one of my options so it can be set as my
defalt?
 
Yahoo has a 'web mail' interface available for free. Yahoo-Plus can be
purchased for Pop3 service, and then OE would have access to that account.

Yahoo is not really a mail program. You can access it via IE or OE.
Thus windows does not see it as a *program*.

There is a small applet you have to install from yahoo. Read this page.

My other computer listed yahoo mail as a choice for my default email program
but not the I am talking about in this thread. They are both Dell computers.
They are networked together.
