Did you eliminate the possibility of a virus?

Are your desktop/start menu shortcut targets enclosed in quotation
marks? For Example:
"C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-aware 6\Ad-aware.exe"
Note the "at each end".

Can you launch an application from the Run command box if you enclose it
in quotation marks?

Is this entry in your registry?

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\open\command]
@="\"%1\" %*"


If you are sure you have no virus then if this can help:
