How do I find a Yahoo mail icon and not just create a shortcut?

I had a Yahoo mail icon up until yesterday when a family member uninstalled something in the add/remove section of my computer. As a result, the icon is missing. I do not want internet explorer shortcut, but the original Yahoo mail icon. No one seems to know how! Do you? The icon is not in recycling bin, and all other ideas do not produce this icon, but only a shortcut with a picture of an “e” which I do not want!

Use Internet explorer to log on to yahoo mail but don`t log in.When
yahoo mail come`s on your screen right click open on any area of the web page a drop down box will come up click on where it say`s create shortcut and it will put a direct link to yahoo mail on your desk top it should not have a big e for the Icon it should have a big red Y for a Icon if you don`t want that for an Icon then right click on the on the Icon for yahoo mail that you have and another drop down box will come up click on where it say`s properties`s a new box will come up click on the tab that say`s web document thatclick on change Icon select the Icon that you want click on ok then click on apply then ok again.and it will change your Icon or you can make your own Icon with free software called icofx it can be used to make Icon`s out of your picture`s or you can do the reverse make picture`s out of your icon`s and you can do a lot other thing`s with it. This is where you can get it.

    I would download the yahoo toolbar. There is an icon on there to get your mail. It looks like an envelop.Just do a search for yahoo toolbar and download it. if you already have the tool bar go to Start on your computer , then control panel, then add/remove programs. it will take a minute to populate. then a bunch of programs will come up scroll down till you see yahoo toolbar highlight it with your mouse and hit remove. Then go to the yahoo toolbar page again and download it. I do believe that you can pick the items that you want on the tool bar. So find the envelop one and make sure to add that.
    Good luck
