No registry backups? You should have five, at least one of which is older
than 4 days. Are you saying you've run

SCANREG /RESTORE

and it does not give you those options?

Otherwise, if the file type is .torrent, I would uninstall the BitTorrent
client, reboot, then either reinstall it or search the registry for the word
'torrent' and delete all instances I found of it, then reinstall it.

what the heck. its just got to be a small deal of enabling or disabling a
feature within WinME or IE6. besides like i said, i dont use the bittorent
client on the vm because i only have an 8.5 gb hdd with it. i was just
downlading torrents for my main system. nothing big, really. it doesnt bother
me that much. and if you WANT to help me, like REALLY WANT to help me, feel
free, but show me how to do whatever (only if you feel like it)

To restore the question"Always ask before opening this type of file" when
downloading. Control Panel | Folder Options | File Type. Select file
extension in the left hand column, click Advanced and recheck the box
"Confirm open after download".
