I'm having the same problem with Fluid 0.9.6 and also with Fluid
0.9.6.5 (latest beta, can be downloaded from [1], change log in [4]).
Pretty frustrating issue. There is a solution, however.

The problem seems to be caused by an odd combination of Flash + Webkit
issues. See [2] for more details.

You can work around the issue by:
1. Going to Settings > General in Gmail and choosing "Basic attachment
handling".
2. Installing ClickToFlash from [3]

Good luck and long live Fluid! :)
