spybot 1.3 has rendered my computer

unfunctional. I installed spybot 1.3 and ran it last night, after it found 131 objects it deleted them and asked for a restart. Upon restart I cannot run any programs, I get the
C:\program files\common files\.........
this program does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. create a folder in the folder options control panel.

system is a dell inspiron 5100 laptop, 2.4 P4 40G HD 712 Ram windows XP home. i would give you the version but I cant even get that screen up, I tried to do a system restore, I tried to uninstall everything give me this message except IE.

Spybot has an option were it will undo what it deleted, i am sure it saves the files it deletes.

Press the recovery button.

here look at this.

Also when you have undone it, run spybot again delete items you know for sure are safe to move. Reboot and if everything is ok, then run it again and then see what it is left, go through each one and check what they are for. When you find the one it deleted that caused problems you can set it to ignore that file in future searches..
