I am running MOSS 2007 and have just noticed that when I view items in a list that have an attachment, the file type icon is not displayed in the Attachment column, rather I get a red X in it's place with the word "Attachment". It does not matter what type of file I try to attach, I get the same result. The site does, however, display the correct file type icon for items in my document libraries, this just seems to be an issue with lists such as Tasks or custom lists. I am able to open the attachment from the list item detail page, so the attachment itself seems OK, I just can't figure out why the attachment icon isn't being displayed correctly.
Thanks!
