tasks and PDFs

I copy a PDF attachment from an e-mail into a Task. Then
when I try to double click on the PDF attachment in the
task I get the following error: "Adobe Reader could not
open (filename.pdf) because it is either not a supported
file type or because the file has been corrupted (for
example, it was sent as an e-mail attachment and wasn't
correctly decoded)."

This does NOT happen with every PDF file, and seems to be
rather random.

Also, I can open the PDF file without error if double
click on it in the original e-mail. where the PDF was
copied from.

Running Windows 2000 with Office XP

Thanks!
