Attachments file extention changes

's Computer Specifications

I am using Windows XP with Outlook 2007. When I forward an email with an
attachment the file extention changes to a "dat" file rendering it unreadable
or unviewable at the majority of the receivers end. This has just started.
Any advice???

Thanks in advance,

Colin
