IE 7 does not display HTM files as html

I'm using XP MCE, and no I don't have SP3 loaded. And IE7.
When I load (click on it in windows explorer), an HTML or HTM file, it
loads in IE7. Okay this is as it should be. But it comes up as the
source code, not a web page. If I simply hit the refresh button, it
displays now as a web page.
Any ideas?
 
I looked at that and I viewed the reg file he was supplying. I'm not
sure I want to apply it, as it points to a bunch of programs etc that I
don't have.

I finally bit the bullet and found .html and .htm keys in the registry,
and other than associations with word etc, I just exported them then
deleted them. Now clicking on a file brought up the standard 'open
with' dialog and I could associate it normally.

Odd that I had an icon for the files in explorer and it loaded the file
but looking at file types there was not .html or .htm extension to edit
delete etc in explorer.

Oh well I'm fixed. Thanks ju.c
