I have Yahoo mail on my desk top. Cannot figure how to get the same on my lap top. When I click the mail icon in my tool bar, I get a drop down that says read news. The icon in my task bar is the ie icon which will open at the yahoo mail page simply because I have it (yahoo mail) set as my home page. Any help would be appreciated Thanks all....I posted this question on CV, but no takers.

XpUser4Real, your link didn't take me directly to a web page. Took me to the hunt for pages containing that site. No joy. Just yahoo help page which is a pain in the ass. Thank you for the reply.
