Worm

Im 90% sure that I have a worm on my computer, the only thing I can
access is the internet, everything else (all applictions, right
clicking, my control panel, my computer etc.) dont work, All I can
access is My computer >> Manage, from right clicking (some things right
click, however not everything on the list does) Ive been onsafe mode and
control panel does not work there either. What do I do?

Ive read about creating new users but how can I do that if I cnt access
c.panel?
Also 'run' on the start button does not work, when I try to run any
application 'This file does not have a program associated with it for
performing this action. Create an association folder in the Folder
Options control panel' appears, I get this message on every exe I try
to run.

Would reinstalling windows help?

Please help.

Sounds more like the file association is kaput rather than a worm.
Try the "EXE file association fix" at this link.

You may need to run more that just that one fix but start off with that one
first.
Click on it and select "open".
Good luck!
