[Tara]

I haev Windows XP Home. I want to chose Yahoo and the mail client that
appears in my start menu and to sue as my default mail client. Right nowthe
only ones that appear are outlook, windows live & outlook express. How do I
get Yahoo mail to appear there so that I can chose it?

Is Yahoo Messenger installed? IIRC, it must be (and you may have to tweak
or accept an Option) so that Yahoo Mail can be selected as your default Mail
Client, Tara.

The very first "hit" seems to be what you need.
