Default Publisher 2003 files save as Word

I recently installed Office 2003 (and sp 3) on a new laptop with Windows 7
x64. My Publisher docs are all saving as Word files. When I open them I get a
window full of gobbledygook that asks me to choose the encoding that makes
them readable. I have no idea what to choose, but there seems to be no
difference when I change it. This occurs on my old files as well as new ones
I try to create. I have tried un- and reinstalling Office '03 and have also
removed any hint of '07 that came installed on the machine. It's got to be
something simple I have overlooked....any ideas?
