How do I add AOL/AIM mail to my list of email providers in Windows Vista's Internet Explorer?

Is there a way of adding AOL/AIM mail to the list of email providers in Windows Vista's Internet Explorer? I remember when I had the AOL software, it would automatically put a link to its email into Internet Explorer. I would like to be able to click on email addresses online and have it open up my AOL/AIM mail instead of my Yahoo mail that I don't use that often.

There is no direct way to make AOL Webmail the default email program because the operating system requires an application installed on teh computer to make it default (which is why the AOL Software worked for you in the past.

One option, if you are willing to test "beta" software and use another browser is the latest Beta version (v1.2) of the Flock brower at http://www.flock.com. It does a great job integrating AOL and other webmail products into the browser.
