So, it seemed a simple problem, a faulty registry key, but it lay far from that. Thank you so very much Shane to have moved all stones till finding and fixing it. :cheesy:
Shane:
Glad to help.
For others who have the same problem, it wasnt a UAC problem. It turned out to be one of the context menu handlers (He had a lot of them!) that was installed by a 3rd party program (Context menu handler is a menu item when you right click on a file or shortcut). I removed them all and it started working just fine. Given how many there was we didnt take the time to try one at a time to find out which did it.

Good job Shane - perhaps either you or George should delete the post with George's e-mail should he get spammed.
