Double click to search? XP problem

When I want to open a file and double click it. It opens a search window.

I have tried file settings and this is not an option. I have no idea what i did to get this. Also when I right click, Search is the highlighted option, not open.

That sounds fiendish. It must be something in the registry. I found this MS article on the problem. You should at least give it a try. As always when playing in the registry be sure to make a backup. Let us know if you find a solution.

Holy crap! What a huge bug. This has existed since atleast february and has not been corrected via update? What gives?

I knew it was not my fault and was afraid I had been hacked.

Now I guess I need to do all my modifications and then edit the registry.

This canīt be a universal bug, anyone else ever change file associations without this problem?

I used this as an excuse for a clean install yet again. Hopefully won't happen again.
