I have a question.
After installing sp2 an some spyware removal programs when
I click on any picture I have saved on my computer,
Windows opens it with Microsoft Photo Editor. Windows
used to use Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. How can I set
the default so windows uses the Picture and Fax Viewer
instead of Photo Editor?
So I don't have to right click and choose Picture and fax
viewer?

Thanx,
~steve~

Sorry cannot help. I just installed SP2 this morning, and I just looked at a
JPG, and it still uses Windows Picture & Fax Viewer. However, I am sure there
is a super-easy way to choose the Pic & fax viewer as default & someone will
answer you, but I don't know it. I am getting old and forgetting things... I
used to know.. I'll watch this thread & learn right along with you.

RIght-click on a .jpg file and choose "Open With" then "Choose Program"
and select WP&FV. Check "Always use this program, then click on OK. Do
this with each typ of image file that you want to open in WP&FV.
