[ OS is Windows 98 ]

Well here's my problem ... a couple of days ago I downloaded some text files of the internet. Now whenever I want to open any of the files I get the error message box which tells me the following ::

"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in My Computer by clicking View and then clicking Folder Options."

Well I did exactly as it told me.... So after I finished doing that I simply went back to the folder where I had the files saved and well to my surprise when I doubled-clicked one of the files i got another box:

[Open With]
Click the program you want to use to open the file
"net-security.File".
If the program you want is not in the list , Click Other.
Description of ".File" files:

So I selected wordpad and click the "Ok" button.

So I decided to go back to the Folder Options and under the "Files Types" Tab I searched for the new file extension that I had added ::

Here are the following settings for it ::

Description Of Type : File Text Document
Content Type (MIME): text/plain
Default Extension For Content Type: .File
