Two possibilities:
There is a conflict with PPS and XP/SP2. See this link for a
fix:

Save the attachment to your HDD. Right click on it and Open With
| Choose Program. Find and choose a program that works and then
check the box: Always use this program to open this kind of
file. This should enable you to open these attachments in the
future.

When I try to open an attached Power Point file using the MS
PPt Viewer, it says no file association exists. However, the
file opens fine if downloaded to a folder and the file
association appears OK? Any ideas will be appreciated.
