Because at some point you have selected to always use TB (
thebat36214.exe) and others from the "Open With" list using the "Open
With" command...example-(right-click on registered file type .pdf).

 
That's the problem. All the file names below the AcroRd32.exe needs to
go.

Follow this:
http://www.oreilly.com/pub/h/3017?page=last&x-order=date

and choose "Clean Up the Open With Option" to clean up associations.

OR

Follow this:
http://www.dougknox.com/xp/utils/xp_open_with.htm

and use this utility to clear unwanted associations. You can check the
registry key above after using to double-check removal.
