Click the attachment options button below the attachments box (it starts with "Encode for..."), and change the "Encode for" option to "Windows (MIME/Base64)". You're probably sending in AppleDouble encoding, which sends a small resource fork along with the attachment. The resource fork helps Mac e-mail clients determine what kind of attachment is being received, but is useless to Windows users.
If you want, you can change the default encoding to "Windows (MIME/Base64)". Go to Entourage -> Mail & News Preferences, and click the "Compose" tab. Under the "Attachments" heading, change the "Encode for" setting to "Windows (MIME/Base64)", and click OK. You can still change attachment encoding back to AppleDouble on a message-by-message basis as described earlier.
