Wonder if this Yahoo Browser is but a customisation of Internet Explorer? Still, maybe if it is actually listed in the software installation list it could be uninstalled, that is if it's not in some way crucial to the way the internet connecton works.
May not be very helpful, but I hope someone responds to this post who's got this Yahoo thing.

At a guess, simply ensuring Internet Explorer is the default browser should fix this. Here's some relevant support articles: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776877.aspx http://support.microsoft.com/kb/177054 Mozilla's article on the subject is also useful: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Setting_Your_Default_Browser#Windows If this doesn't help, I recommend supplying more information to the list. In particular: 1. What program are you using to view your email? 2. What is your Windows version? 3. If your Windows is not a Vista flavour, what version of Internet Explorer are you using? 4. When you say "yahoo browser", do you mean the BT Yahoo! Browser?
