My computer just started doing something strange. Before, whenever I would like at pics, it would open the pic in IE. Well, I just went to look at the new Strikers 1945 pics and now, it downloads the pics to my Temp folder and opens them in MS paint. What the hell happened? I have had programs steal file associations before but paint? I also can't find how to switch it back.

Go to view, folder options, then file type.
Check JPG/GIF/BMP file type under Registered File types box. If those file types point to IE or MS Paint, edit and change to any graphic application you have (like MS Photo Ed, Photoshop, etc).

Thanks bro. I think what happened is that I accidentally restored some defaults. Jpeg image was still set to IE but JPG file was going to paint.

Thanks,
Jeff
