When I try to open the file, (in browser, go to settings, then
downloads, then select one of my downloaded copies), I get a dialog
asking which of the following programs do I want to use to complete
the action:

ES Note Editor
HTMLViewer
Polaris Office

I have not actually tried any of those, but none seem promising.

Oh, and Google Authenticator still has not downloaded, so I am still
locked out of Market.

Thanks,
