Yahoo IM/ Opera browser issue on Vista?

¡Nü¢µlar ReÄç†or!™ asked:


I use Windows Vista with Opera 9.22 as my system default. However, whenever I click a tab on my Yahoo IM interface to get instant access to email, 360, etc, Internet Explorer 7 automatically opens up instead of Opera, even though I have Opera set as my preferred default browser. I never had this issue on XP (even though it had IE 6 on it instead of 7). Is there something in IE7 or Vista that automatically overrides my defaults?
..or could it possibly be an issue in Yahoo IM itself that opens up IE 7?
