Opening file attachements

[Jane]

I recently got a new computer from my company. It's
running IE 6 and Office 2003. I use a web-based Outlook
site to check my e-mail. In the past, if I opened an
Excel attachment from an e-mail, it would lauch the
application. Now it's opening files in IE with a modified
standard toolbar instead of in Excel. Does anyone know
what I need to do to get these files to launch in Excel
automatically, besides saving files and opening them while
in Excel? I'm guessing it's an internet option, but which
one?

Thanks,
Jane
