It is supposed to be a shockwave file, but even though I have downloaded shockwave player 8something it refuses to play. (and yes my anti-virus is up-to-date and the sender is known to me) I can only think it might be that it won't work with IE 5.0? Should I update IE - or are there more hazards with the update?
