FIle conversion

Chris Reavley

Hi, I have 2 PC's one laptop, one desktop. When I receive an e-mail with a
pdf attachment (Adobe) my laptop opens it no problem and it is legible. The
desktop however, sees the attachment as a Word file. When you click on it,
the (opening mail attachment" dialogue box comes up - click open, then the
file conversion bo comes up and it is set to default but the text is a mix of
"hieroglyphics". If you then choose other encoding none of the many option
deciphers the text.
The same happens with or without my 3rd party antivirus running. This is
Word/Outlook 2003.
Any ideas, as this is beyond my level of competence ?
Thanks
Chris

Diane, I should have said my level of incompetence, my acrobat reader on my
desktop was not working properly, which I cant believe I did not work out.
Thank you anyway for your help.
