tassietiger,
I did a google search and got a couple ideas, with a note
as always
.att
Email attachment. Email attachment file, possibly generated by a web-mail program.
The file extension .att seems to be used in place of the correct file extension. Try opening in notepad, or rename to the expected file extension and then try opening it.
The ATT file type is primarily associated with 'Web Form Data'. If the file is named POSTDATA.ATT then most likely the file contains the results from a Web form. This will be an ASCII text file with a bunch of strange characters betwee the data fields. You can open the file in any text editor and read past all the junk or use a tool such as Post Data Spider to just show the data. You should also be able to use the Import Wizard in Excel to bring the data fields into an Excel worksheet. The format is similar to a .CSV file so adding a .CSV extension to the end of the file's name should also allow you to open the file in a number of other programs that accept CSV-formatted data files.

Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).
