receive attachments imbedded in message

[drphilx]

Windows VISTA Ultimate, Offoce 2003, Intel Centrino vPro, 2 gig ram, 250 HD.
Situation: I receive attachments from several sources. They are mp3, ra, ram
etc. No prolems except with one source where I receive the attachment
imbedded in the message. Same file type from other sources are received as
attachments. This is not the same with other people who receive the same
message with attachment.

I see: Status U, and (below) - User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.14
(Windows/20080421)
MIME-Version: 1.0
To: undisclosed-recipients:;
Subject: Emailing: She's Gotta Grin - Velvets Red Robin 120 '53 .ra
Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
boundary="------------070409070100060104010901"
X-ELNK-AV: 0
X-ELNK-Info: sbv=0; sbrc=.0; sbf=0b; sbw=000;

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
--------------070409070100060104010901
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

This is not a Security program problem. I have removed it completely and it
persists. It has been reinstalled. McAfee support was involved. This most
likely leaves us VISTA or Office settings. Can you help? Thx in advance.
