\Software\Classes\exefile\shell\open\command\
Description:
The Default setting for these entries is '"%1" %*'. Some malware will add entries to have other things run. Also, may need to examine other file types under the Classes key, as well (ie, any file classes that point to an app, with a .exe extension). These entires map to HKCR\{ext}file\shell\open\command. Other entries under the HKLM\Software\Classes (and HKCR) key are succeptible to this same sort of subversion. For example, navigate via RegEdit to the HKCR\Drive\shell\cmd\command key, right-click on the "Default" value, and choose Modify. In the textfield, add "&& notepad.exe", and click OK. Open My Computer, select a drive, right-click and choose "Open Command Prompt here..."...both cmd.exe and notepad.exe will run.

Key Location:
\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options
Description:
This Registry location is used to designate a debugger for an application. Testing shows that it's an excellent redirection facility. For example, adding notepad.exe as a key, and then adding a "Debugger" value of cmd.exe will cause the command prompt to be opened whenever Notepad is launched. File binding utilities will allow an attacker to bind a backdoor to a legitimate program, and then redirect that legit program to the Trojaned one.
