Right click on file, choose open with>Programs then choose the program that you want to read the file and check "Always use on ...."

BTW I would guess that Java reads the file usually

hey thanks.. I did try that .. and my right click button .. has no effect on the "links"...

I wondered if there is another place I might check ...

cant figure out what I did to change the way irfanview intercepts. .. those links..

let me know another option.. if you can

bb

I mean in c:Programs

Not in Limewire

Files that Java is suppose to open are .jar

If you can't see fileextensions then press start>controlpanel>folderoptions and chopse show common extensions + show hidden files and folders

BTW have no idea why IrfamView would associate itself with anything in Limewire. This is a new problem so these are just qualified guesses

Just to qualify.... I doubt that this problem had any thing to do with the new update.. i installed.. sorry if i implied that.. I'm sure it was some thing I've done in the past 6 mo..

I'v taken a break from limewire for a while.. I was having some trouble.. and thought it might have been?? related to a download I got there... but I dont know .. of course..

any how.. I just today got back.. on .. and was searching .. and noticed an up date so.. I installed it.. ... and the same thing happened before i put in the up grade.. ( that .. links want to open in irfanview.. strange..)

thanks.. I'm still looking on how to change my file associations..

I went into.. folder options and I think i followed directions.. like y ou said.. but .. alas.. still the same error pop's up..

NNNNNN E X T !!! please

bb.. waiting for instructions
