OK, here is the fix for the issue with reading the tips file, or at least this is what worked for me.

When you click on the link, I get a screen telling me that Windows cannot open the file because its an unknow file type. Your choices are SAVE or CANCEL. Click SAVE.

While you are saving the file, give it a .DOC extension (CX2.DOC), because it appears to be a Word doc. Alternately, save the file on your hard drive as CX2 and then rename it to CX2.DOC.

You will now be able to open the doc in MS Word.
