WINE in Squeeze taking associations of everything



Hello, with the current WINE in Squeeze, all the file associations
change and this is very annoying and as such I cannot have WINE
installed, which means not testing my programs in a Windows-Like
environment. WINE ruins my desktop completely.

What I mean by this is that:

Any text file now open in notepad.exe instead of gEdit. It might as
well open up DosBox with FreeDos' version of EDIT.COM.
Any image file opens up in paint instead of eye of gnome or GIMP.
Any HTML file opens up in WineBrowser instead of epiphany.

It's impossible to change single file associations because even if I
use the GNOME association stuff, alot of other things still use WINE
stuff regardless and cannot be changed.

In lenny, none of this happened and everything worked great, however
that changed in Squeeze. Why do WINE associations take priority now
instead of in the past when they did not?

I use Window Maker with gnome-terminal as my terminal, epiphany as my browser.

Any suggestions would be very helpful.
