clicking and running an .wmv attachment in Vista Windows Mail

When an email is received with an attachment that has a .wmv extension, the
attachment will not run. However, If I save it to the desktop as a file and
click on it there, then the file loads the proper application and executes
the file.

When I receive other attachements with different extensions such as jpg,
mp3, pps, etc, they will open up and run with the designated application from
inside the email in Windows Mail, without having to save the attachment to
the desktop or other location before viewing.

What can you suggest
