well this has happened before but still not sure what to do.

i turned on my desktop…i think it was ad-aware asking to accept or block a few changes…i blocked one thinking nothing of it…then the next and one more…then realized this has happened before. I couldn’t get out of it…so just did a hard shut down. I am on the desktop now, and just about all my files on the computer have no associated program to open it with…exe files won’t open…reg files won’t open. Was going to trying a system restore…but won’t even let me get into that…again…it says no program associated to open this file. I was gonna go edit the resitry and try to fix things that way, but won’t let me open that either. So i’m at a loss on what to do. I was just gonna format the whole thing…or even try to repair it, but i can’t find my windows CD at the moment. Anybody know if there is anything else i can possibly do to fix this problem?

See if you can boot to safe-mode with command prompt. If you can do that this article may just work.
