This clearly is not an excel binary file, but some html-export form. Youcan probably open this file in your browser. Apparently MS Excel has atrick for importing these files, which oofice doesn't have. Try eitheranother spreadsheet program (kspread,...), or try to obtain a properbinary xls, or better, and opendocument compliant file.

It is a file generated by What's Up Gold that supposed to be a tabulardata. It can be viewed with MS Office 2003 as it should but not with OOo3.0.1 from lenny-backports
