To
view Japanese sites on the Internet, Yahoo! Japan gives an
instruction
on its site,
explaining that "Yahoo!Japan is a site much like Yahoo! but
tailor-made for Japanese users.
You need to be able to view Japanese
characters through your Web browser
in order to properly view Yahoo!

you are not satisfied with just browsing, Microsoft now offers Global IME

"Use the Microsoft Global Input Method Editor for Office XP (Japanese) to input
Japanese text
in your documents, worksheets, presentations, mail messages,
publications, and Web pages."
