Find the application in the OS X finder and do a command i on it and
you will see a launch with option. That must be set for ResEdit.
Probably the first time you opened an application of that type in OS X
it was from ResEdit.
that is my guess.
The "desktop file" in OS X can be rebuilt by removing the three files
beginning "LS" in "~/Library/Preferences" and restarting Finder.
