Thanks for providing the information - I can recommend that you go here: File association fixes for Windows Vista and follow the instructions to restore your file associations.

That worked.

Thank you very much. Just one more thing though - the icon's are all still showing as Photoshop Files - would this correct if I was to restart?

Had to sign off...did it correct the icons?

Glad I could help
