Hmmm, did you "fiddle" with the registry? Look for "RestrictRun" entries in 
the registry probably under
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\xxxfile\shell\open\command
where xxxfile is the string associated with the extension that is giving 
you problems.

I found a Win 2000 Knowledge Base article that also describes this behavior:
