Somebody installed a new software to my pc which sets the default program for my .jpg files. the icon were not functioning as usual and displays an error message whenever i try to open a jpg image. thanks a lot to this website i have found which gives the solution to reset the file association back to its default application, the Picture and Fax Viewer of the Windows XP OS.
just download this text and merge or (double click it) to your registry file to fix the association of files.
