Excel found unreadable content...

I have a user that currently has Excel 2010 on his machine. When he receives this .XLS file sent from a different user who has Excel 2007 on their machine he gets the "Excel found unreadable content in "Invoice Register.xls". Do you want to recover the contents of the workbook? If you trust the source of this workbook, click Yes. 

Why is this message popping up just for this user? We have other users that get sent this spreadsheet who have office 2010 (like myself) and I do not get the message. Just this specific user gets this message. The user who is getting the Excel error is using a Windows 7 32bit machine. Like stated before, multiple other 32bit Windows 7 users are not experiencing this issue.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!
