3 suggestions: 1) Are you sure that after you tested 1 file, that you took a new file and actually CHANGED, when selecting change-all ?
2) Check programs like Realplayer for theur setup options. These program's sometimes have an option to always enforce themselves again. I had a battle with a window some day until I discovered a check-box that said "Always Float". I unchecked that box, and it was Gone-with-the-Wind(ow). 3) Do you have Classic running ? I guess since you are a CE'er. In classic, the preference panel for file associations still exists. But if you change e.g. the association for an html-file to some othe app; it changes back in less than 10 seconds. So, there is at least something running in our Mac's that gets involved quite anxiously and imposes this.

Yea!
