How do I change my "send an email" default program in Messenger from MS Outlook to Yahoo?

When I hit "send an email" from the messenger main page, it defaults to outlook. How do I change this to open up Yahoo email, instead of using MS Outlook?
Answer:

To make Yahoo! Mail the default email application for your computer, click Tools > Internet Options > Programs tab > under E-mail click the down arrow and select Yahoo! Mail > click Apply. If Yahoo! Mail isn't listed as a default email option follow the directions below and it will solve your problem. Using Internet Explorer just click "Continue" on the link below to download a small 60K file that will enable Yahoo! Mail to be the default email application for your computer. Whenever you click on an email address on any web page or in any computer program, Yahoo! Mail will open for you in a new window. If Internet Explorer displays a yellow security bar at the top, click on it and select Install ActiveX Control from the menu. If a security warning comes up with Yahoo! Inc. as the publisher, click Install. Now you can click on an email address anywhere and your computer will automatically open up Yahoo! Mail for you. You can even send documents directly from Word, Excel, or other Windows applications. Requirements: Windows 95 / 98 / ME / NT / 2000 / XP / Vista Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher http://help.yahoo.com/help/uk/mail/ext/ext-11.html
