Which of the following filetypes does it happen with:
.exe
.com
.bat
.lnk (shortcut)
The spyware probably stuffed with the registry entries under:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
probably the exefile entry or individual .exe, .com etc. extention entries.
The reason they would be opening with notepad is because after you removed the spyware windows would have brought up a screen asking what you want to open the file with... he must have chosen wordpad.
Try copying and pasting the following into a text file and rename the text file to something.reg then double click it and merge it into the registry.
