I'm using Vista Ultimate, and suddenly today .exe files and .rar seems to open media center?

Does anyone know how to fix this, since I'm really annoyed that I can't even run regedit to try to fix it.

Apparently System Restore brings up Media Center too.

Nope, gets an error saying you can only import from the registry editor.

I've tried already, and I don't dare, since if I restart my firefox will end up becoming Media Center Confused .
