Excel 2007 recovery removing password on protected sheet...

C

ChironIV

User1 created an excel sheet in 2007 and saved as xlsx with a password.
User2 then emailed the file to another user via Yahoo.com web mail. User 2
saves the file to his documents folder and opens it with his copy of 2007
excel. The file opens in recovery mode and no password is needed to view the
document. Why did it strip the password off in recovery mode? Anyone seen
this before or is this some form of corruption caused by the web mail?
