Thank you for your last reply. I think my last question was worded improperly. My problem is actually with FASTA links and not FASTA files. When I click on the FASTA link on a UniProt site, the link automatically opens with Jalview. If I right click on the link it does not give me the option to open with a specific program. Normally the link would just take me to a page with the FASTA file so that I can manipuate it as I wish. How do I change the settings so that this does not automatically happen? Or is this still a problem with my operating system set up. If there is no way to fix this then how do I unistall Jalview. (I am unable to unistall it from my control panel). If it helps I am working on a PC.

This depends on which browser you use. Firefox has a list of
applications that it uses to handle different files (see the
'applications' tab of the Options dialog opened from the Tools menu),
IIRC, IE uses the windows file associations (which you can edit from the
folders properties dialog - at least in XP).
If there is no way to fix this then how do I unistall
Jalview. (I am unable to unistall it from my control panel).
If you installed jalview from the installanywhere distribution, then
there is an 'uninstall jalview' program in the installation directory
that you can launch to do this (usually its in the start menu folder).

It does help! Specific install type and your browser are also relevant
here. I'm not totally sure how to remove the file associations if you
are using java webstart, but a good start would be to open the java
webstart application viewer (type 'javaws -viewer' into the CMD or Run..
dialog to open the application viewer), find jalview and remove it using
the uninstall option (right click to get the menu- I think).
