From: JCS on 2 Jan 2010 14:46 I recently had my desktop tuned up and when I recieved it back they updaed the Bios and now I cannot open microsoft (xcel, Word, Powerpoint) file with the standard application. It opens as Read only and the content of the file is blank. I can open the word document with clipboard, excel with the internet option and Powerpoint with viewer. In additon, when I try to attach docs to an email through the desltop short cut, it gives me the following error "ccess to the following potenially unsafe attachements has been blocked: xxxxxxxx.INK" Any thoughts? -- JCS
