Cannot view php pages

While surfing, I clicked a link to a page that instead of opening, prompted me to download a php file. Without thinking, I clicked on "Open" and a blank page opened for editing in Dreamweaver.

Now when I try and get passed the Windows BBS start page, I get file not found errors. Also the icons on the start page are missing.

I had to borrow another computer to post this.

Can I just re-install IE to repair or is there a quicker way to solve the problem?

I have looked at the file associations and php is listed as being edited by dreamweaver. I have added an Open command and associated it with IE but that didn't cure anything.

This machine I am on now doesnt even have php files listed in file types so I am not quite sure where to go from here.


Thanks

 

Thanks for the help Pete. I did as you suggested and that didn't cure the problem, although I have no doubt it will have cured a few others.

What did happen however is that windowsbbs.com didnt come up at all, it turned into a page reading "Test page for WindowsSec.com "

I looked at the hosts file and found an entry hijacking this site. Once deleted all is fine.
