Problem opening links direct to .WAV files in IE7

A

Alexey

I am getting a strange one here. When I click on a link like the one
below, that points directly to a .WAV file, I get a blank page with a
JS error. Never used to happen in IE6. The link works fine in
FireFox. My security settings for IE7 are default. I can right-click
and choose "Save Target As..." - that works fine, but not the standard
left-click.
Can anyone point out what I am missing here?

Example of link:
<a id="gridMessages__ctl3_hyperlinkPlay1" href="http://
www.coanetwork.com/voswaves/8886584921/msgs/504774070122085510.wav"
target="_blank">(202) 555-8200</a>

JS Error:
Line 1, Char 1, Error: Object expected.

Source of the page that opens:
<html><head><script src="res://mshtml.dll/objectembed.js"></script>
<script language="javascript">var objectSource="http://
www.coanetwork.com/voswaves/8886584921/msgs/504774070122085510.wav"; </
script> </head><body onload="ObjectLoad();" leftmargin=0 topmargin=0
scroll=no> <form id="objectDestination"></form> </body></html>
