If you are clicking on a scr or exe file Open With menu isn't available. A way around this is to put a shortcut in Sendto (type it in Start - Run) with
rundll32.exe shell32.dll,OpenAs_RunDLL
and rename it to Open With
This invokes Open With direct.
Here are two reg files that turn off the internet search dialog and also prevent open with from changing associations.
And here's a script I wrote for those without XP to use the look up feature. The look up function rarely has a clue about file extensions, I think it only knows office. It certainly doesn't know anything about standard windows file extensions. But if you turn off Internet search dialog this is a way to look up extensions if you insist on wasting your time.
