Yep, works great with small ones, but that baby's way too big to be sensible.
I have always used a FTP program to download it in the past.  Microsoft
Internet Explorer (the FREE browser) has a downloadable plugin (might be
integrated now) that reads DOC files nicely, they also have a DOC file reader,
as well as ones for XLS and some others besides.  Go to Microsoft's web site
and look in their download section.  (they keep changing it or I'd give an
URL)
