Change default when clicking on link
When I'm on a website that contains a link to e-mail somebody, and I click on
that link, it automatically uses my Outlook Express account. Is there some way to change that setting so that I have a choice of whether to use my Outlook Express or a web-based e-mail program? -- tiggirl

It is always going to choose the e-mail client that is set as default.

Preferrably Yahoo Mail.

You'll need to install Yahoo Toolbar v7.2 or higher *for IE* and enable the
option to make Yahoo Mail your default.

Mail (web mail service) as your default email handler, IE will always choose your default email handler, with no option to choose. -- Norman ~Oh Lord, why have you come ~To Konnyu, with the Lion and the Drum
