Multiple apps in the "Open With" menu

[Warbrain]

I've just noticed that I have two or three occurrences of the same application in my Open With menu. I don't know what is causing it or how to get rid of it. Any suggestions?

What app is it, if you don't mind my asking?

Every single app that the file can be opened with. There are multiples of all.

Hm - that's weird...and I haven't the foggiest idea. Sorry, boss.

Well, I thought all was well. This problem came back again. Lovely. At least I know how to fix it now.
