The icon I get for my .eml files that are associated with The Bat! looks like an open envelope with a sheet of paper halfway out of it... So you will have to unbind the .eml extension from this program to get the "Open with..." option again. Here's what I would do: Run regedit, open HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, select .eml, delete the key. Next time Windows is started it won't recognize .eml files - they will have the general icon and you can select another program to open them. This time you will certainly be more careful with checking "always open...", and first try without. ;-) - -- Cheers Peter -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.5.8ckt Build 06 Comment: PGP-signed for better authentication :o) Comment: Key available at http://www.meynsweb.com/public-key.txt Comment: Key-ID:0xE10774CE Comment: Have a lot of fun! :-) iQA/AwUBO9CxjQM2UgbhB3TOEQLI3wCfSoT4OvuMo4WNFqDUHKLceJ/ZLNIAoMfa Wq1qCr4BnTwgyn6LwnkhMSR2 =PoAj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- ________________________________________________________ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
