All my desktop shortcuts have changed to Word logo on Windows 7.

Original Title: After last Windows Update (05/09/12) every program wants to open as word.  I no longer have access to any program through the taskbar, start menu, or desktop.

 I no longer have access to any program through the taskbar, start menu, or desktop.
They all show as being a Word document.  I have restarted my computer and have the same issue.  When I retarted all the programs that start up tried to start up as a Word
document. 
Just before the issue I tried to open a Word document and it asked me to choose a program to open it with.  I selected Word and all my icons for programs turned to Word documents and when I click on them they try to open as Word.  The only other update or
change I made to my computer since the Windows Update was the Adobe update that came up after the Windows Update.
I have Word 2010 installed
