I've used JEdit for years, successfully. Under Windows 2k. About a year ago, my machine suddenly started opening JEdit whenever I tried to open a PDF file (directly from Windows explorer, or from IE)... I've done the obvious thing of setting the preferred application for .pdf files to acrobat reader, and Windows says that is the current setting -- yet, JEdit still gets opened if I double-click on a PDF file. The only way to successfully open a PDF file is to use "Open With...", which works, but is annoying. To my knowledge, this isn't happening with any other file type. I've tried re-installing Acrobat Reader, to no avail. The only thing that had changed on my machine around the time this started was the routine installation of Windows automatic maintence... A search of Microsoft's support site doesn't lead me to any clues.

Does anyone know where there might be some setting in Windows that is causing this behavior? Again, I've already tried setting the "registered file types" list in Windows Explorer, and this has not solved the problem. I don't think this is necessarily a JEdit issue, directly, but it doesn't seem to happen with any other file extension or application. Help, anyone???
