opening zip folders

I was checking out my new vista machine. I wanted to see if any other programs would open a zip folder so I right clicked and clicked open with Photo Gallery. I didn't work but that changed the way zips try to open. Now they always try to open in Photo gallery and I can't figure out how to change it back to the right application. Will someone please, please tell me what to do?

There are no dumb questions, just the people that do not ask them.
