woohoo i just found the problem it was supposed to be opening with some program that i didnt have on comp no more, well i thought i didnt but i did it left all the files to reinstall it so i had to reinstall it then decheck what it opens :S so i got it to work ty cosmo

I also suggest you use Irfan View for opening any image file. It is a small, free program and it loads in a fraction of the time IE takes to load.

Anyway, why use IE, GO MOZILLA!

An easier way to reassociate a file is to hold the Shift key while you right-click. This forces the 'Open With...' option to appear on the menu. Of course that wouldn't have helped you, since you didn't have the necessary program installed. ;)
