Again,
I believe its a MS problem with how they are trying to download the file. They are
trying to download it straight from the server instead of porting it through IE like
other attachments.. If you have a adobe acrobat reader, try sending yourself a PDF and
see if the Adobe IE pluggin opens the attachment.. Should work fine. As for Older MS
office, IE associates the file type with word, excel, etc.. As for the newer office,
this is where your problem lies in that word is trying to go get it himself.
I wouldn't be surprised if you need some office updates..
