Hello,

I have a friend running Vista and Office 2007. I remoted into their
computer - set outlook to be the default e-mail program in Outlook in
options and also in IE. before Yahoo would also open in IE when clicking a
mail link on a web page - now it only happens when clicking on a mail link
in outlook. I'm not sure what needs to change but I want it to use outlook
for all e-mail.

Thanks

Anyone? Please?

The only reason I'd think IE would be opening Yahoo mail is that the Yahoo
toolbar has an override for mailto settings, much like the Google toolbar.

If you hover over the url, does the url look correct? Just a standard mailto:user@domain?

What happens if you put a mailto link in a word doc and click there?
