Hi,
See if either of these articles helps:
162059 - Office Documents Open in Internet Explorer:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=162059
254918 - WD2000 How to Change Internet Explorer to Open Linked Files in Word
Instead of in Browser:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=254918

If unsuccessful with those procedures, you might try a repair of IE:

Hope this helps,
