To make Yahoo! Mail the default email application for your computer, click Tools %26gt; Internet Options %26gt; Programs tab %26gt; under E-mail click the down arrow and select Yahoo! Mail %26gt; click Apply. If Yahoo! Mail isn't listed as a default email option follow the directions below.

Using Internet Explorer just click "Continue" on the link below to download a small 60K file that will enable Yahoo! Mail to be the default email application for your computer. Whenever you click on an email address on any web page or in any computer program, Yahoo! Mail will open for you in a new window.

If Internet Explorer displays a yellow security bar at the top, click on it and select Install ActiveX Control from the menu.

If a security warning comes up with Yahoo! Inc. as the publisher, click Install.

Now you can click on an email address anywhere and your computer will automatically open up Yahoo! Mail for you.

You can even send documents directly from Word, Excel, or other Windows applications.

Requirements:

Windows 95 / 98 / ME / NT / 2000 / XP / Vista

Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher

Have you tried setting your homepage to Yahoo!? If not try that. Open IE, click on tools, then on Internet Options. When that page opens, under the homepage section type in http://www.yahoo.com, with IE 7.0, you can actually set up a number of tabs to open when you start IE. That way, when you open IE 7.0, yahoo will be right there and then all you have to do is click on the mail button on the Yahoo home page. With Yahoo set as your homepage, open up your yahoo mail, then check your options again and see if yahoo is listed, if not, try typing in yahoo. The other thing that might work, no gaurentee, try setting up outlook to for yahoo mail. Close outlook and then check and see if it has been added to the list in internet options.
