The above error can be also an indication of your machine being infected.

That error message indicates that something is wrong with your Program Information File (PIF). PIF files are files that keep track of the settings for programs in older versions of windows.
Try changing the startup directory.

Thanks everyone for your help. The program was running from a mapped drive and for some reason i had to unmap the drive then remap it for it to start working...It was just a weird bug i guess...thanks!
