I think that's an office thing. It thinks, for want of a better word, that the file may be unsafe, so, it's being opened in protected mode on your computer. I know there is a way to disable that, but don't know how to go about it.

When I get a document from this file sending service called Hightail, the Word document is shown to be in protected view. This is happening to me on two different machines. The files are not protected. I sent the file I received to the individual who sent it to me and they opened it and it was not a protected file that they saw. A friend of mine uses Thunderbird, it reads just fine. Any ideas?
