I then removed MW and reinstalled it. I made the change to the target, but once again the box asking which program to use pops up. As soon as I select Java SE binary all my shortcuts stop again!

I think the next step is to reinstall Java. I'll leave that till tomorrow. Thanks for the help so far. I will not be defeated!

In the Shortcut tab of the MinimWatch icon properties, what is shown as the Target type? Mine says "Executable Jar File". For a normal (non-Java) shortcut, the Target type is "Application". Perhaps when you select a program to use, you are doing this for all shortcuts with the same Target type.
