Office Power Point Viewer 2007 wonc't open ".PPS" Files

Using Windows 7, Home Premium, 32 bit. No Office 2007 installed. Using
Microsoft Works. Have experienced several issues with Office PPT Viewer 2007.
Cleared them, but additionally each time I try to open a .pps file, either
from the Desktop or Windows Mail, I receive the following:

"C:\Users|AMD\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temp oraryInternetFiles\content.IE5\E7D22GOW\Gathering
of Mustangs and Legends2007.pps is not a valid Win32 application".

I have opened this file many times in another computer, so don't believe it
is an issue with the file. The software has been uninstalled and reinstalled
several times, with a reboot each time. Also redownloaded the software two
different times thinking it was a corrupted download.
Can someone direct me towards a resolution, so I can open these files?

Thank you, Rext

You will have much better luck asking in a PowerPoint newsgroup. This
newsgroup is dedicated to the Microsoft Access database product. The
Microsoft website may have misdirected you.
