Firefox experts: Getting rid of Yahoo
I originally had the Y! toolbar installed on my Firefox, and I believe that it altered something so that now when I click on an email address to mail (the "mailto:" link), it points to my Yahoo account rather using the default method. I uninstalled the Y! toolbar, but it still does it.
How do I get rid of this? Or at least have it point to my Gmail account? Thanks.

No, that didn't work... my default emai program is set to Outlook.
It's something native to Firefox that got altered, because when I hover over an email address, instead of "mailto:[email protected]" it shows "http://compose.mail.yahoo.com/ym/[email protected]&"
