Do you know the extension of the file you did this on?

(like .doc in MyFile.doc or .txt in Example.txt)

If you do, then create a new file with that name.
then in windows explorer,
shift-rightclick on that file
You'll see an option for "Open With"
find the real owner of that extension (you may need to browse for it)

And select it and check the "always use" checkbox.

If you remember the extension, but don't remember the name of the program, post
back. Maybe someone will recognize it.
