Do you have multiple copies of Firefox, MacVim, and Coda lying around on your disk?

OS X will look in places other than in /Applications when identifying what apps are available.

No I just ran a command in the terminal, see my post below – Saurabh Jun 23 '10 at 11:13

Ok I found a solution myself, just copy and paste this command in the terminal (credits to the original unknown author and google):

/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
