Hi List buddies.

I'm having trouble with downloading this file

http://www.natrailmuseum.org.au/news/SH_Book_Sale.doc

which I am assured is a standard word document. But when Arachne
downloads it, it then gives me the DOS error message "Bad command or
filename" and starts downloading it again.

The webmaster says that he has no trouble with it using IE or Opera,
naturally both are running under a late version of Windoze.

I suspect the file is trying to start MS-Word, which of course i don't
have on my computer.

If anyone else can download it successfully, I'd be pleased to know the
secret, and also what they find in the beginning of the file.

Thanks to all.
