That's wierd! The exact same thing just happened on one of my colleagues computers this morning too! Must be a Friday the 13th thing I guess.
The way I solved it was to over write the Client files in the Windows directory with fresh ones (I keep them backed up). I don't know which file was corrupted, but it worked. The only disadvantage is that you lose all your customised settings...
