One programm in particular, as it's in the begginning of the list is BBLINDS (Builder Blinds) I have removed this of the system (Win98), but it's still sitting there. I have used Regedit to look for 'open with' but nothing found. And i've tried looking for it with msconfig, but nothing. so waht do I do? PS: don't just tell me to uninstall the programs like someone else told me - cos they are uninstalled. PPS: www.allexperts.com is great for answers of all kinds. (but not this question) Thank you.

It will allow you to change all sorts of desktop options, but won't do the open with one. You could try searching for bblinds, not 'open with' in the registry. Also if you can find out what the bblinds exe file is called, you could look for that in the registry too.	Guest (0)
