How can I switch my default email program from Office Outlook to my Yahoo email address?

Whenever I try to email pages or links to friends, it opens up Microsoft Office Outlook instead of going to Yahoo mail. This only started happening after we got our computer fixed a few weeks ago when the hard drive crashed. I already tried going to tools; internet options; programs; then dropping down to email programs, but Yahoo is not listed. HELP!!! I'm so frustrated now!! Can't figure it out!
Answer:

PC -- Internet Explorer or Firefox From the ¡°Start¡± pop-up menu in the lower left corner of your desktop, select ¡°Settings¡± ¢º ¡°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 email programs? Download Yahoo! Messenger. It¡¯s easy, it¡¯s quick, and it puts Yahoo! Mail in your email application list. http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/settings/settings-10.html Thumbs up are always appreciated if I have truly helped you!!
