Hi Don, I don't know about Vista, but, in XP, you can go to the control panel, folder options, file types tab, down-arrow to MP3 and specify the program to use when opening the MP3.
Vista must have something similar.

I have a desktop machine running Windows Vista and Windows Media Player 11. I prefer winamp, so installed it on the machine and under file types I selected all for the file associations. If I play mp3 files from within wimamp they play just fine, but if I simply hit enter on the file I want from windows explorer, the file plays in windows media. I can't seem to find the place in wmp 11 to change the file associations settings in order to prevent wmp from automatically play the mp3's. Does anyone know how I can get the files to play automatically in winamp?
