Thanks people!!!
 
Do you know the person sending the e-mail? Does the e-mail have a subject? This looks like it may be binary and MAY be a virus. If you do not know the sender, do NOT open it. Just delete it. Have someone you know send you a test message with an attachment and see if it works correctly. If the same thing happens, it could be that you have your webmail programs to open attachments inline, which means to automatically open them. If it is a zip file you should be ask how you want to handle the file. If you are not, I would try a new webmail program. I use the one from .
