Stop a default scan

I am using Windows 2000 SP4 on a Sager Notebook. I have Spybot S&D and "Scan
with Spybot..." is part of the right-click menu items for a variety of files.
The problem is that the scan has become the default action for my .avi files,
requiring a separate step of canceling the scan or always opening .avi files
using right-click and "Play with...". That default scan does not show up on the
Tools>Folder options>File types utility.

How do I put Spybot back in its place? Thanks - gm

Gualtier,

You can change the default application for the file format via right
clicking on your avi file, Under the General tab > Click the change
button alongside the "Opens with" label > Choose the multimedia
application that you would want to be the default > Click Ok.

Hope this helps,
