Urgent help needed!!!

Luffy321

All my applications were turned into zip files. I cant use system restore because thats also a zip file.

So i uninstalled winzip hoping that everything would turn back to normal. Luckily its opened IE for customer feedback. If it didnt, i dont think i would be able to open IE. How do i change everything back to normal?

Can anyone help?

File association problem?

My operating system is vista.

Let me try and explain it better. If i click on Internet explorer, it asks me what program to open it with. All my icons are blanks pieces of paper.

do a system restore to a date/time prior to the problem occurring, try to get to system restore via start>control panel>system
