Hello again Richard,
Do you know the type of file that this is? Try to save the attachment
instead of opening it, to be able to tell more about what type of file it
is, etc. Then if you trust the file, do an online search for an application
that will convert the file to something you can open with a program on your
computer. There is a web site, http://www.file.org/, where you can input the
file extension, and it will give you all the information about the file, and
what programs can be used to open it. It will also tell you if the extension
is usually associated with a known malware or the like.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Opening attachment and fixes?
Hi all,
15.0 and win7.
I tried to open an attachment in WLM and got a message that it could not
be
opened.
I was given an option to go on line to find a file association, or some
other phrase to fix the problem.
I clicked on the recommended box and proceeded to download a program.
Now that I've installed this program, how do I use it to open the
attachment?
I went to the e mail and opened the attachment and still got an error
message.
The program was called "PC mighty max".
Thanks for any help.
Rich
