with the sircam virus going around, i'm not into opening attachments.
my guess is that you are running into the cr/lf problem.
windows terminates lines with a cr/lf. unix uses only a lf. so when you
read the windows file, the cr terminates a record and then the lf
terminates the interspersed empty record.
