    don't know..

    but if u want it to open in firefox.. you need to set it again manually.. and no more windows picture viewer !

    Get rid of your annoyance by finding an image..
    right click -> properties -> click change and pick the app you do want.

    The one that gets me is why when i use theme xp all my ZIP files have no icon at all. I dont mind my jpegs having a little firfox thingy, looks better than the crappy microsoft icon for them.

    you can perform the same operation to add an icon to files without current Icons..

    right click -> properties -> change -> select the program from a list -> find winzip.. rar whatever.

    May your zips have icons !

    I do that but they stay iconless regardless.

    how about opera is for people that like long german things?

    i am sure the installer probably asks if u want to associate the app in these ways...
    if not.. it will by the time it is at version 1 !
