Strange file download issue

PFG
User 1 has posted a .docx file

User 2 tries to download, but instead is served a .zip file. The zip file seems to be a zip of all the individual document elements, and is not easy to reconstruct.  THis is for windows. Mac users just get the .docx.

User 2 is a member of the same group.

Any idea why the .docx file is being 'deconstructed' and then 'reconstructed'. It's a bit 'Start Trek' transporter room, gone bad :-)

How very strange!

Was this from within the PFG rapidweaver site? On a Windows PC?
Thanks Pedro, for your interest.

Updates, the zipping happens with different users, on different computers, whether through the rapidweaver site or through direct web connection to the nable forum. It seems though it is something that nabble is ding, but not consistently. Or, I suppose it might be browser specific?
I use Chrome/Mac OSX, all fine
My group: IE8/W7 - seem to be failing
You?

One of my users has just downloaded the docx file correctly, using firefox and W7. More and more mysterious!

We added those mime types to the n6 server (where your forum is located).
Please try again and let us know if you still see issues.
