I have IE6, and use BT Yahoo Broadband. I had to re-install my BT Yahoo
software due to a problem, and since then the BT Yahoo Browser has become
the default browser. I can't find any way of changing this either in IE or
the Yahoo Browser.

Any tips would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Helen.

Open the IE browser. Go to Tools|Internet Options - click the Programs tab.
There you will see a check box at the bottom... "Internet Explorer should
check..." Check this box and next time you open IE it will ask to be your
default browser. Just answer 'Yes'. While here you may also want to press
the button "Reset Web Settings". Good luck.

Helen,

The only tip I can give you is, get rid of <don't use> IE 6.xxx but instead D/L Firefox 1.0 from
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/, it is a better browser and not prone<as of yet> to bugs and virii.
