    From the MAIL HELP pages (not sure if this will work for Vista, but:)

    PC -- Internet Explorer or Firefox

    From the “Start” pop-up menu in the lower left corner of your desktop, select “Settings” ▶ “Control Panel”.

    In the Control Panel, select “Internet Options”. This opens the “Internet Properties” window.

    Click the “Programs” tab along the top.

    Click the “E-mail” pull-down menu, and select Yahoo! Mail*

    Click OK.

    *Are you not seeing Yahoo! Mail in your list of E-mail programs? Download Yahoo! Messenger. It’s easy, it’s quick, and it puts Yahoo! Mail in your E-mail application list.
