All .exe files r opening in word format, help me! (W98)

[sreeni607]

Hi guys,

I was downloaded a document file from my mailbox and when i was trying to open that file( double clicking on the file name in explorer) , it didnt opened but it becomes a .exe file (icon has been changed to the application icon). Then i tried to open that .exe in word format ( using open with option of the right click). It has opened. But afterthat RUNDLL32 file also opened in the word format(showing in small blocks). Then onwards even calc.exe is also opening in the word format.

What should i do? Please help me..

Thanks and Regards

Sreeni607,

From what you have described, I think you have to repair some of your file associations. Have a look at this tutorial.</font color=blue> (http://howto.lycos.com/lycos/step/1,,9+27163+27169+27202,00.html><font)

Good luck,
