You may try rebuilding the Launch Services database. I'm not quite  
sure it will help, but who knows?

Before Tiger, this meant deleting the following files, then restarting:

     /Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices.6B.csstore
     ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices.UserCache.csstore
     ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.LaunchServices.plist

On Tiger the organization and naming of the files have changed, it  
should be something like:

     /Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices-0140.csstore
     /Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices-014501.csstore
     /Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices-014504.csstore
     ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.LaunchServices.plist

The names of the files inside /Library/Caches/ will probably be  
different on your setup, the digits at the end of the name refer to  
the user ID; I think 0140 is general, and there should be one 0145**  
per user account.
