Default Mspaint Preventing Contol Panel to Open

Hello All,

Somehow the MSPaint application is preventing some applications from opening like Msnmsgr, contol panel, RUN-msconfig and paint is running in the task manager and has to be closed to get rid of the error message. Most error messages are C:\program files\windowslive\messenger\msnmsgr.exe This is not a valid bitmap image, or its format is not currently supported. Some are different but they are all .exe

Any help?
Thanks
