If your Yahoo is configured to log you in automatically when you click a
bookmark or type an address into the Address field of your browser, then
it will do the same if you click a link to the same address. Otherwise
it won't. There isn't anything magical you can do in a link that will
log you in if Yahoo isn't already configured to log you in automatically.

You can, however, try adding a form to the page where you had intended
to put a link, configuring the form to send the same information as
Yahoo's own login form, and prefilling the name and password fields in
your HTML.
