I'm not sure what you are saying here. Are you saying that when you try to run an application (exe file extension) that the Paint program is starting up or that you have downloaded a graphics file from a cd and the Paint program is starting when youdouble-click it?

Please tell us the exact steps you performed and the full names of the files you are trying to open and how you are trying to open them. I'll bet we can resolve this.
