When we discussed this some while ago I assumed that whatever objected to opening the Word files created by EW was part of Windows (or perhaps part of Word) it was MS software interpreting the absence of MS specific content (like the version of Word) as 'suspicious'. I just had another document rejected by someone else, who said his computer will not open the file, and shows a security alert. When I quizzed him he said it was AVG anit-virus software. So I wonder what file attributes of an EW generated Word file are triggering it.
