control-panel

I can not access Contol panel in my windows vista machine.

As soon as i click the "conrol panel" item in start items, it shows up a window and then its closed automatically ( same happens if i use "control" command).

Is there some program or some registry entry thats restricting it? is ther a way to control this behaviour?
