Try reinstalling your web browser. For example, reinstall IE or Navigator and during the installation select to let the browser be the default application for the image files.

Reassociate the extensions with the correct applications. Do this by going into explorer, view, options, write down the actions the association takes, i.e. .gif images (action=open), then blow away the file type, recreate it and tie it to the proper application, edit the actions, and all should be well again. You can do it for each extension you are having trouble with. Note: this works great if you associated certain files unintentionally. Hope this helps.

re associate it is the answer but it is easier to:
hold shift key down
Right click on file
Choose "Open With"
choose the new program to open it with and check "always use this program"

Problem solved....
