How to make Word launch for a downloaded document?

[Guest]

Help! We have a relatively simple intranet site set up on the cumputer
network at my work. On just one computer, if you try to download a document
in .doc format, (or .xls documents & Excel...) it launches the document
within the browser, instead of launching Word (which is what we NEED it to
do, so others can make & save changes). All other computers launch the
respective program for whatever type of document they're downloading.

Any suggestions?
Thanks!
