I accidentally assigned my log files to be opened with the
Gator program. How do I fix this?? Thanks in advance!

If you want a proggie to "permanently" do that, then highlight the
appropriate type of file, then SHIFT+Right-Click the file and choose
OpenWith. Then choose your desired program.

Andrew has explained one way to change the program used to open a .log file.

I suggest you look at the problems that can occur from having Gator on your
computer:

Alternatively, you can:

Start > Settings > Folder Options > File Types (tab)
Scroll down to the file type in question and remove/delete the file type
