Question about 'Customize Context Menus'

I have a question about Customize
Context Menus:
The strangest thing is happening on my computer. I'm using Windows 98. I would
like jpg images to open in Internet Explorer, but Adobe Photoshop seems to have colonized
the jpg extension.
Here's what's strange, though: I go to a folder, click "View--Folder Options" and
go to "File Types." But there is NO listing for a photoshop jpeg image. I've tried
remove all associations from jpeg images ,and then starting over--creating a new
file type with a .jpg extension, and trying to associate it with IE. But when I
do that, I get an alert saying that the .jpg extension is already attached to Photoshop--JPEG
image. But how can i edit THAT listing when it's not even among the list of file
types?!!! Help!
thanks.

Have you tried holding down the shift key and right clicking on any jpeg image and
selecting Open With in the context menu, selecting iexplore and ticking the box "Always
use this program to open files of this type," and click OK.
Cheers
