Didn't see the original message in this thread, but if the above doesn't
work, try the registry hack method.

Don't want to keep the lousy Notepad as your default viewer for the HTML
source in Internet Explorer? You can change it by editing the registry.

Go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\
View Source Editor\Editor Name

The default key there should say "Notepad.exe". If it doesn't, fix it. Or
change it to any editor of your choice. I have mine set to NoteTab Pro, an
excellent text editor.

Disclaimer: Editing the registry without proper knowledge can screw your
system. Back it up etc. etc.
