not logged in: open and download attachments work fine
with Firefox all works fine

any ideas?

quick and dirty solving this problem:

deactivate

header("Content-Disposition....");

in

getfile.php

...no filename for attachment, but it works also in IE

I've tried opening attachment with IE and have not seen such an error, what IE version are you using? Do you have any additional plugins installed?

IE6 / WinXP, Win2000 / German

error occurs only if
* you are logged in
* if you open *.doc, *.xsl, ... directly (download first, open afterwards works)

Does it have a problem if you open MS Word and specify the URL to the attached file?

this will not work, because word (or an other office-program like OpenOffice) cannot login first!

login with IE
click on attachment and choose 'open' -> fails
click on attachment and choose 'save as' -> OK

login with Firefox, Mozilla, ...
click on attachment and choose 'open' -> OK
click on attachment and choose 'save as' -> OK
