File association problem with Agent.

[randwill]

Use to be that when I clicked on a photo in Agent and then clicked Launch in
the pop up window, Windows Picture and Fax Viewer would launch and display
the image. Recently I started getting the message, "There is no application
associated with MIME type image/jpeg..."

I wanted to make an association to Windows Picture and Fax Viewer but
Microsoft has hidden it so well that I was not able to find it.

Doing some research, I found what I understood was a fix here:

http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm

I downloaded and ran the fix for JPEG associations.

Now I get a different Agent error message when attempting to launch a photo
from Agent. It reads, "Unable to execute command C DOCUME~1\..." ending in
the name of the JPEG.

Is there any way to tell Agent that I want it to use Windows Picture and Fax
Viewer to launch images?
