Browser links to xlsx files result in File Not Found

I know there must be a simple answer to this, but I have searched and had no
luck.

A link from either of my browsers (IE7 and Firefox 3.08) will open Excel and
the file with extension xls, but will not open an Excel 2007 file with
extension xlsx. I believe the same think occurs with Word 2007. Is it
something in my browser setup? The message I get is "The page cannot be
found"... HTTP Error 404

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Hi, I have same problem, I installed the latest drivers:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...36-8C28-4598-9B72-EF94E038C891&displaylang=en

but I still have the same problem.

Did you find a solution?
