    You can associate it with wordpad, save to your hard drive and then right click on the .doc file and choose open with... and then browse to wordpad

    Usually, c:\program files\windows nt\accessories and then wordpad.exe

    If not at the location, open wordpad in accessories tab in start menu and then choose file, open and then browse to your downloaded file
