Hi Luke,

Start here:

EXE and LNK Fix for Windows XP - Line 12

CPL Fix: http://www.dougknox.com/xp/fileassoc/xp_cpl_file_assoc.zip

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by
right clicking on the file and selecting Edit.

All the Best,
