File Associations Problem

My beloved XP machine died, hard. So I purchase this machine which came with Vista Home Premium as the OS.

I prefer RealVideo to view videos and I use UltraEdit v14 has my editor. I had them as default in XP, via the file association utility.

When I tried the same thing in Vista they would not stick.

I downloaded RealVideo application, went to Control Panel->Default Programs->Set Associations page highlighted the files I would like associated and click on the 'Change Program' button go the 'open with' window click 'Browse' and selected the Real Video executable and to my susprise when I returned to the 'open with' window the icon for Real Video was not there.

I successfully installed Read Video so there is no problem with the app, it's Vista.

Does anyone know how to fix this?
