There is a known attachments problem caused by a recent update to
Norton antivirus. There may be a newer update that corrects the problem,
so first try updating your Norton antivirus.
Norton Antivirus users are entitled to a free upgrade to Norton Antivirus 2009,
which cures the problem. If interested, contact Symantec via online chat.
As a last resort, uninstall Norton antivirus and follow up with their debris removal tool:

If you like, we can recommend a more compatible free antivirus.
