Check your machine for nefarious programs (virus, worms, spy-bot, etc.)
Seems as if file assocaites for many (all?) programs has been changed
to Adobe Acrobat (or is it Reader?). No Adobe progam will do this.
Something or someone has done this. Find out what/who. Read in "help"
about "file association" to understand the concept of file associations
(where Windows will launch a specified executable based on the file
extension on the file).

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.

Try Doug's link below, XP-FIXES, and click on " Restore Default File
Associations Easily"...
