Thanks for the help.
I have remover the string in
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTS\SystemFileAssociations\ShellEx\
ContextMenHandlers\ShellImagePreview making the graphics program still used
to preview from that point forward
as stated in "http://tinyurl.com/k2ss.
I now want to disable the viewer completely.Can you tell me which string I
remove to achieve this?
The reference page I'm reading just states---"there will be a default string
that contains a CLSID. Delete
this and the preview action will be gone! For the edit and print options, go
to this key instead:"

It ends there. What does that mean? I don't want to screw up and remove
something that I shouldn't.

Sorry, but I do not have additional info about
the site you are viewing. Before you make
changes in your registry you should read the
following article:

Maybe the following links will be useful.

Fax Viewer (Line 80)

How do I turn off the Windows
Picture and Fax Viewer as
my default image viewer?
