Unzip it to your desktop and drag it on top of your WIN500 icon and let off the mouse button, it should bring up WIN500 with the info in it.
Click on the CONV Objects tab and see if there is anything there.

Ha, I missed this reply!
Glad you saw what I was seeing!
It sounds like your file associations became borked somehow.
Do other things seem to still work ok? Things like PDF files open in acrobat reader for example.
If so then it may just be the file associations related to Win500.
I'm not sure but uninstalling and reinstalling Win500 may reset the file associations so the .p500 file extension files open in Win500 like they should.
I'm not sure what a .bin file should be by default but that one used to indicate a binary file and it may have not had a default association so you can probably ignore that one.
If you are running XP, it is halfway simple to change what a .p500 file opens with. It is under the Folder Options applet in Control Panel.
I don't have an XP machine handy otherwise I'd tell you how it should be set.
I've also not fully figured out how to set associations in Win 7 yet. Can't say I've really tried though.
Then again, a reason to get a new computer sounds good also

When I did what you said it tell me that your file was written with a newer version of win500 and to update it to the 2.05 version I went to the scanstar site I do not see a way to update it and I email them through the site.
I can't remember if you are using the trial or paid version of WIN 500 if it is a paid version Make sure you have you have your registration code.
