I read online somewhere that you have to associate it with the calibre-viewer, but, as I said above, that just opens the viewer without loading ebook into the library.

Now that is downright weird. I assume that if you right click, open with and browse to the calibre.exe file, it does the same thing?
One possibility is that in your registry the calibre entry in HKCR\Applications is not correct. If you open regedit and look in HKCR\Applications, is there a calibre entry? If so does it have shell => open =>command under it? In command, is the default set to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Calibre2\calibre.exe\" "%1" (I added the (X86) for a 32 bit program on a 64 bit system).
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\calibre]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\calibre\shell]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\calibre\shell\open]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\calibre\shell\open\command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Calibre2\\calibre.exe\" \"%1\""
I've attached an image of what that entry looks like on my computer. If you save the text in the code box to a .reg file (calibre_app.reg, for instance) and double click on it, it should add the needed bits to the registry for you.
