Hard Drive Problem?

Question

I downloaded a DJ program from the internet, played it and deleted it from the computer. Ever since then, when I open 'my computer', the icon for the C drive has changed. I click on it to open it and a small window appears saying

"windows cannot find the program mixvibespro.exe. The program is needed for opening files of type, 'file'. Type in the executable file to used instead."
Then it gives me a space to enter what i want.

I can access the hard drive using the right mouse button, and clicking on explore or open, but why has it changed and what can i do to get rid of this mixvibes thing.

Your help is much appreciated.

Open Widnows Explorer
