Default Domain name displayed as title in SERPs

Hi,

I'm currently working on improving a clients Yahoo ranking and at the moment the domain name is being displayed instead of the page title in the SERPs.

This is only happening in Yahoo and it can't be coming from a meta tag as the domain name isn't included in any of these.

Has anyone seen this before?

Thanks in advance,
Kev

I found out that the problem is the Yahoo SERPs are using the title from the Yahoo Directory. Is there an opt out meta tag that can be used to remove this in the same way as DMOZ?
