Yahoo Mail

[wallie]

Is it possible to put an icon for Yahoo mail on my Taskbar in IE?
I do not want to use the Yahoo Toolbar.
Also how do I make it my main mail client?

Thanks

I would just use FAVORITES

(the following won't work on XP Home)

Add Internet Explorer Toolbar Buttons
Use the following step's to add your own browser tool bars. You can add links to any programs on your computer oh to any web page (tweakxp.com) for example.

1. Go to Start, Run
2. Type in gpedit.msc
3. Go to user configuration - Windows Settings - IE Maintenance - Browser UI. Then click on browser toolbar customizations.

Notes: You will need 2 icon files (ico files) one color and one grey for the mouse over.

Guessing your using a HOME edition which apparently doesn't have Group Policy functions like XP Home doesn't.
