Simplest solution first... System Restore back to a time way back when you know it was right.

START > PROGRAMS > ACCESSORIES > SYSTEM TOOLS > SYSTEM RESTORE
Select Restore my computer to an earlier time
Click Next
Calendar appears (Section 1.), go back a couple of months and click on a dark blue date
If multiple restore points appear in Section 2, select one
Click Next
System will reboot and restore to the date selected
Fingers crossed.
