This is a problem with file associations. For some reason all of
your .doc files have been associated with OpenOffice.org. To change
these file associations back to what you want, right click one of
your .doc files. Select Open with. Then select MS Word or Word Pad
(which ever you prefer to open these files). Finally, at the bottom,
click the boxed labeled Always use the program to open this type of
file. (Or words to that effect) Click OK. That should solve the
problem.
