When I open a program, another icon appears in the taskbar. How can I change to make the correct icon?

I tried to change the default program that appears when I open the .gif or .jpg files, so I made successfully by using the control panel.

Then when I opened a PDF file (with Adobe Reader X), the icon that appears in the taskbar is my default program for .gif and .jpg files (in this case, paint).  I checked the options of the program by default under the control panel and it does not say that .pdf files will be opened by Adobe Reader if it is not the problem.

When I check the properties of Adobe Reader X, the icon used is the appropriate icon.

I uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader software, but it still happens.  I restarted the computer.

So why Windows 7 displays the icon of the paint when a .pdf file is opened?

I ask here because the control panel and change the default programs is a Windows 7 problem.

Thank you

Oh believe me, it would drive me crazy too.

It's probably a long shot, because as far as I know, the taskbar should not use the shortcut icon to the start menu to choose which shows... but we will try.  Just kill this reader shortcut in the start menu and make your own (just open Adobe C:\Program 9.0\Reader and do a right click AcroRd32.exe choose "send to: desktop (create shortcut)" and then falling in your Start menu.)  Try it pin to the taskbar too and then open a PDF file maybe.
I think I know the registry keys control this icon, but I really hesitate to recommend snooping around in it.
