Now all of my .exe files won't work because Windows will call WordWeb (a dictionary program) to load them up. Apparently, Windows still knows how to load .exe programs because it can load the Word Web program. Any .exe that I launch from Explorer will "Open With" Word Web..... Any ideas on how to fix this?

Fixed:
I reassociated .exe files with Windows system restore. Then I ran an executable so System Restore would load up (I couldn't load it before because Word Web would come up). I had an image from 2AM this morning and I restored. I love System Restore now.

From explorer, click on tools and then select folder options. Click the file types tab. In the list of registered file types, scroll down to find .exe and delete.
