This is arguably Windows most annoying so called feature. It is possible to get rid 
of it you must go onto the menu bar of any folder and then to "folder option" and 
click the "file types" tab and there will be a list of file extensions select the 
one you want to change click the change button and select the program you want to 
use, if you do not see the right program listed you will have to click "browse" to 
find it yourself. 
Here is a list of extension you might want to change:
.bmp

.jpeg
Other less common ones include:
.ani
.cur
.dib
.ico
.jfif
.jpg
