1. Make sure the computer is completely virus/malware-free:

2. If the machine is clean, see file association fixes here:

File association fixes for Windows Vista:
http://www.winhelponline.com/articles/105/1/

3. If neither of the above works or is applicable, since the change was
sudden do a System Restore to a date when everything worked. To run
System Restore, go to the Start Orb and in the Start Search box type
"System Restore" without the quotes. System Restore will appear in the
Programs result. Click on it, allow the UAC prompt, and follow the wizard.

You may have been hit by a virus or trojan
if you are comfortable with regedit then check these

Open the registry by calling regedit.exe from within a batch file.

Go to: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\open\command this should have
a default value of: "%1" %* exactly as I have typed. This value is sometimes
removed during a virus check and .exe files will not be run afterwards.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cmdfile\shell\open\command which preserves its default
value of "%1" %* makes it possible to run .exe files indirectly from within
batch files.

Good luck

Can you open up a CMD window? Type cmd in the start window, when the cmd
window opens, type regedit.exe and press enter.
