Illustrator 10.0.3 file problems

Recently, a lot of my file icons for Illustrator 10.0.3 have become CS2. In doing so, i am unable to open them, getting an error -39. i get around this by dragging them off the server they are hosted on onto my desktop. this only happens to file with the CS2 icon, when most of the time they are in fact 10.0.3 files.

also recently random file icons will change from their normal .pdf or .eps icon to a grey unix executable file icon. is this a computer problem or is a program effect this?

i tried reinstalling 10.0.3 and it did nothing.

Use Mac HelpMate's error code lookup

Try downloading and ruuning the lookup error code funciton of Mac HelpMate. Perhaps that will give you some insight into why this is happening. Probably something due launchservices being screwed up. Mac HelpMate can assist you with resetting the launchservices database as well.
