Firefox not opening?

I have Firefox installed on my desktop and I try to click on it to open and it won't. So now I am forced to use I.E. Yes, yes tear tear. Can anyone help me figure out why it's doing this or how to fix it?

Start -> All Programs -> Mozillia Firefox(?) -> Firefox.

Also right click on the icon and see where it leads.

As Killjoy said, right click on the shortcut and select properties > Open File Location. Make sure there's still a firefox.exe there, though I'd doubt there wouldn't be. Try reinstalling Firefox, as this could repair any issues. If you wish to uninstall, make sure that your bookmarks etc are backed up, and if they're not in IE or another browser, use a program like MozBackup to ensure you won't lose your information.

Also, is there a 'firefox.exe' process running in Task Manager?
