I usually use MyISAM. Innodb is only needed if you are going to develop something very special, which might use transactions.

ALTER table <your_table> type=MyISAM;

MySQL has six table types: MyISAM, MERGE, ISAM, HEAP, InnoDB, BDB or BerkeleyDB Tables

Try this :
ALTER table <your_table> engine=<engine type>;
'type' is deprecated.

You already got the storage engine types.
There are a few more in version 5, such as cluster, archive, federated.

Try download MySQL Administrator. It will make your life much easier in terms of changing database or table attributes. You should be able to find it from MySQL official home page. Have Fun
