Emailed Presentations

[Guest]

When I receive a PowerPoint presentation in my email (outlook) and go to open
it - it opens a PowerPoint window and then hangs. Sometimes plays sound if
there is any. Also does this if I open it in PowerPoint or play a slideshow
that is in PowerPoint. I do not get the slideshow again, it just hangs.
Looking at the icon below in the task bar of open documents = you cannot
close it from there - you must use task manager.

I am using Windows XP Pro

Thanks,
