Double-Clicking on a Folder Leads To...

[mastavic]

Hey,
How's it going?

Usually, double-clicking on a regular folder in my Windows XP will lead to the opening of the folder. However, something went wrong, and now everything I double-click a folder, it goes to the "Search" menu. I decided to right-click instead, and when the Context Menu appeared, the word Search was on top and in bold (which is usually what the word Open should be in).

Can you please help me? It gets pretty annoying...

Thanks,
