Erm circles here too. Where did it come from and is it in a different language?

My friend sent it and asked me to try and help him fix it... thats all i know

Sounds like a windup to me. ;)

Tell your friend that it's knackered and send it back with a few hundred more pages copied and pasted on to it

Hexedit the file, mostly filled with 'F0' and a few lines with 0 and p, no wonder it's got no readable text in it :)

I'd say whoever sent it didn't save it correctly or as SnoopZ says, it's a windup!

Its his work, he was doing it in class today, must have not saved it properly

I ran it through Word 2007 and that couldn't make sense of it in any format language.

Heh, let's just hope your friend's Word document wasn't virus infected, otherwise there'll be a fair few people on this forum who are now infected too. :D

There's nothing in the file that can possibly be a virus, not even a macro virus!

Re: Corrupt Word Document
 

Nah some of us scan things before opening ;)

Re: Corrupt Word Document
 

I wouldn't post a virus on this forum though....

so no need to worry :)

Re: Corrupt Word Document
 

unless it was a zero-day :erm: not that I want to panic you though ;)

yeah, wasn't really suggesting you would, mate... was just a joke ;)

Re: Corrupt Word Document
 

yep :cool: i know :p:

There is no file header, this is either a joke or the file is not a word based document.
